Wherein We Have Failure To Communicate - Part 2
So, remember yesterday? The asparagus?
Yeah.
Today, I met with a couple of friends and a recruiter friend, looking at potential jobs for them in the future.
One was scheduled at 3 p.m., the other at 4 p.m.
My recruiter friend was unable to print the resumes, so I run by the house first, to do a quick print. I find I’m out of paper, I have a paper jam, it’s only one wreck after another, and ThatManILove’s phone is ringing off the wall.
I can tell he’s having trouble, plus he needs an email address from me right.now. and his phone is just cutting off calls right and left.
He realized what was going on before I did.
ThatManILove: Babe...did you leave my truck running?
Me: No. Well, maybe! Oh, shoot!!! I did!!!
His truck has a bluetooth, and it was trying to pick up every call. AND they were all business calls! I’m such a dork!
I finally get everything printed, and get out of there, and now both of us are highly stressed out.
I got to the designated coffee house, and realized...my phone’s almost dead. My computer’s almost dead.
And then, I have a brain wave, and realize I’m in ThatManILove’s truck. Which has a constant electric converter installed.
I go out to the truck, plug my gear in, and decided to text ThatManILove so he won’t worry if he tries to reach me. I tell him to call me on my friend’s cell phone.
Or, I thought I did.
My friend walks into the coffee shop, with a huge grin on his face.
James: I think I got the wrong text.
Me: What?
James: I think I got a text you were sending to your husband.
Here’s a REAL copy of what went down. I don't know who laughed more. Me? ThatManILove, or my friend James.
Asparrrrrragussss!!!
It's never boring around here!
Ha ha - fun post!

ReplyDeleteNicely done, Janie!
Honestly, as far as stress goes, have we ever lived in a more stressful time???

Just be glad you didn't tell the many you love, and honey, get the chocolate syrup and whip cream hand and get naked, I'll be home shortly. There might be a line outside your house when you got there.
ReplyDeleteThat's too funny -- glad the texts weren't any more romantic or you might have had some 'splainin' to do. Lol.
