THE Phone Call

Dew and I were going to go grocery shopping at Wegman's last night (Monday). I needed some things for my work lunches, salad and stuff. But knowing that Matt was calling, I didn't want to go, I wanted to wait for THE call. So all night long I walked around with the phone. Luckily there were a lot of new TV shows on last night to distract me. And I was kind of surprised that I didn't get the call before I went to bed at 11 pm. And I was wondering if I was going to have to stay home again. But NO, that won't be happening........
at 3:40 am came THE phone call.......now mind you, I understood that he would be reading me a script of things and I wouldn't get to talk to him. What I didn't know was that he would be yelling it at me. Whoa baby........here goes.......................my groggy hello and then.......
