Sunday's Surprise: Open The Envelope (m)


This week, the exercise has two parts. First, write a recording you’d hear on an answering machine, and then write a (at least one but more if you’d like) message a person would leave after hearing it.

I'm a little late, but I wanted to share...


**Beep**

You all know the drill - leave a message at the beep. Fact is, we're most likely at home, sitting on the sofa, arguing over whether or not to take your call. If you just hang up, you are pretty much guaranteed not to hear from us until we get off our lazy *sses. If you leave a message, one of us might care enough to jump up and grab the phone. Take your chances.

Oh, and if you're the marriage counselor, piss off. We aren't paying another dime for your crappy advice, and I have never had fantasies about my obese, plumber crack boss.

**Beep**

Hi,it's mom. You there? (pause) Anyone home? (pause) Well, call me. I need to know what I should bring to the anniversary party.

**Beep**

It's mom again. (pause) Thought maybe you were home and just missed my call. (pause) Okay, call me, then.

**Beep**

Rhonda, it's George. Your obese plumber crack boss. I was calling to see if your little anniversary party was still on for this weekend. My girlfriend wanted to go. I'll talk to you at work on Monday.

You speak the truth, my dear (m)


Don't we all screen our calls??? LOL. I loved the obese, crack boss part. Funny!

Thanks, Wendy,

Mac
