Last night I get a call from my brother. Our main phones are our cell phones, just seems a cheaper way to go. As you are all aware I am sure, cell phones are sometimes not that great indoors. I always lose my connection when I am home so when I receive a call I run quick like a bunny out to the lanai before the call is dropped. I barely make it. Apparently my brother has to do the same thing. Anyway, he asked me to look up some flight information for him on SeaCoast Arlines for his trip home for Christmas. Whoo Hoo my bro is coming home. I can’t wait!! I said I wished I could sit in front of my computer to give him the flight information because it would be so much easier, but I would chance losing the call. He said he understood and explained to me that he is outside too because he has a tin roof on his home. So he wanted to do a test to prove to me that he would lose the call if he went inside.
BRO: Ok, I am going to go inside now. Let me know if I start breaking up (do you know what’s going through my head at this point?? PRANK!!)
ME: Ok, go ahead
BRO: Can ya hear me now?
ME: Yea, you’re good
BRO: How about now?
ME: (Now mind you I can hear him a plain as day) BRO! <silence> BROOO! <longer silence> BRO!
BRO: I am here, can ya hear me.
ME: BRO! <silence> BRO!
BRO: (he starts to say something and I cut him off)
ME: I am kidding I could hear you the whole time
And we just start cracking right up laughing our butts off – we are in hysterics. OMG, we must have laughed and cried laughing for a good 5 minutes just feeding off one another. He was like, you got me, that was good.
Well, we hang up and I go inside and look up the flight information for him and decide to call him back while I am sitting in front of the computer. The connection works sometimes I if sitting just right, (necked cocked to the left, face pointing upward, and eyes looking cross-eyed) it will last for a few minutes. Joking, but I do feel all contorted trying to keep the connection. So I call Bro back and start telling him the flight information and what do you know, my phone starts fading in and out, well Bro thought I was doing it on purpose again and he was like, NOT NOW BE SERIOUS! And I said, I am it’s my phone – trying not to laugh. So I cocked my head more to the left, and shifted my eyes and finished the conversation.
