Here's the scene...
Paisley and I are in my car, ordering food at In and Out, when I notice I have a new voicemail. I see it's from my best friend Jason Clark. I tell Paisley, "Oh...this is gonna' be gooooood..." and proceed to turn on the interior bluetooth in my car so we can partake of Jason's crazy while enjoying a juicy burger and quenching our thirst from cups with little red palm trees on them.
Jason's voicemails are like American Idol auditions. You never know what you're gonna get, and you close your eyes waiting for the best, secretly hoping a gem unfolds, but deep down you know it's gonna be all over the place, and totally worth the wait.
Then like the voice of God beaming through my car for all of the In and Out parking lot to witness, we hear:
"In 2 years my goal was to get on your quote board and I got one quote that I don't even remember saying. Are you effing me? I'm furious right now, and I think I'm gonna cry. Who's this Garrett character. I don't think anyone but me has gotten a whole post about them on your blog but ME gosh dangit. I demand a call back, I demand a disclaimer, and I demand all the quotes about me to get on that board. And change your damn message because those little girls make me want to shoot my eyes. Bye."
Jason call the waaambulance.
I love you.
Here's your disclaimer.
And the little girls stay.
Anyways, I called Jason back because who wouldn't call their best friend back after an amazing voicemail like that. A hilarious conversation commenced, and I reminded him after his little tantrum that I have all his quotes, but NOT ONE was appropriate for a public quote board. So I'll keep them on my personal QB aka MY BRAIN. And then one day I'll tell his kids all the naughty things their dad used to say (once they're of age of course) and Jan and I will look at each other and roll our eyes and go in a different room while their kids lecture Jason.
You're welcome best friend.
the first night we met...
...who knew i had found one of the best friends i've ever had...complete with a lifetime of fighting, laughter, love, support, and annoyance. complete package. and totally worth it.
Once again Jas, here's a post about you.
It was your plan all along.
Welcome back to the comfort zone.
Fern Gully would be proud. And would probably lick the computer screen.
Love you.
