He calls and:
Him: Whatever, the L, it’s like the T. Only the chairs are felt instead of leather. And it’s reliable. So wait, it's nothing like the T.
My phone craps out.
I call him back:
Him: ...when you come out to visit in the winter or spring or something.
Him: So you’re not mad at me anymore?
Him: I bought some $20 shoes, olive all stars, kinda like my old sweethearts. (of former duct tape legend)
Him: I think I dressed up for you.
. . .
Him: Okay, well you (from Levittown, NY) figure out where I’m going (in downtown Evanston, IL) and while you’re doing that, I’m going to go buy a milkshake.
He hangs up.
He calls back:
Me: Google Maps says you’re now 1.6 miles away, you were 1 mile away before.
Him: WHAT?! You know exactly where I am and where I need to go. How am I in the wrong place? Forget this, I need to pee.
He hangs up.
He calls back:
Him: Vaquita, how you doing? Good? Yeah, you sure as hell convinced me. Well I am nowhere NEAR this Best Buy, I am one angered koala. I guess I'll head back. Vaquita te amo, you go to bed and dream of the koala, oookay?? Oookay, WHAT?! WHO’S talking?! Night.
We hang up.
