Alright, this has been a long time coming, but the goal I set for myself was to learn how to play the ukulele in 2011. First, I had to obtain a ukulele. Everyone and their mother (or brother) offered to get me one, but no one did. Finally, my brother (yay, Jon!) re-offered because, “I don’t think I’ve given you a present…ever.”
Yesterday, we had a lab dinner, so I missed a call from Jon. Listening to the voicemail, I realized Lee Mama had used his phone. She said, “Your brother got you a little guitar! It’s pretty cute! Call back!” Lee Mama talks in exclamation points. I called Jon back to thank him, and the conversation was pretty usual.
Me: Hey! I got mom’s voicemail. Thanks! [Yeah...I also talk in exclamation points.]
Jon: Cool.
Me: So, what are you up to!?
Jon: Just waiting to go back to Davis.
Me: Oh, ok.
Jon: See ya later.
Five seconds after we hung up, my phone buzzed, its screen showing a call from Lee Papa.
Me: Hello?
Lee Mama: Hi!
Me: Hi mom.
Lee Mama: I thought you were going to talk to me, but then your brother hung up.
Me: Well, I wanted to thank him.
Lee Mama: After he hung up, your dad got his phone out, but then he didn’t dial, either! I had to call!
Love my fam.
