Morning call instructions

My Mikey, I love you

At first I was concerned.  Now, I’m just angry.

I know it’s 11:26am and EVERYONE thinks we should be awake, but it’s really nobody’s business if we sleep late or not.

A simple list of things to do and NOT to do when you call us in the morning :

1)  Don’t call, call, call, and call some more.

2) If we don’t answer, let the fucking answering machine pick up.

3) I respond better to voices on the machine than to the constant ringing of the telephone, so if you don’t want your head bitten off, leave a goddamned message.

4) If you do not leave a message, but you still keep calling, don’t whine and bitch to me later about how you couldn’t reach me.  Anyone who calls us knows….aw shit….I bet Bomber turned of the answering machine again.

I called Mama to see if she had called me.  She answered the phone with "I’m in class.  Can I call you back?"

The tone of voice hurt my feelings, but then I got angry.  I wanted to ask her, "Why the hell do you have your phone on when you’re teaching?!"

I’ll have to investigate the answering machine later, to see if Bomber DID turn it off.  He’s done it before.

Cheery morning to you, too,

PdC

k, this is added at 12:52pm.  For Mikey or Hank or whomever it was that woke up this morning…..

The next time you wake up and I’m on the phone, it would be considerate of you to either wait it out or to get your own coffee, instead of getting angry with me for talking to our daughter and my grandmother.  I tried to get off the phone, but it didn’t go so smoothly.  Did you break your legs in your sleep?  Why didn’t you get your own coffee while I was talking?

You have hurt my feelings.  I’m stating that simply and directly.
