I Never Said. . . .
. . .things were better.
'Cause I'd be lying.
Conversation via phone:
E: Mom, I was just calling to see if I can stay for back work today.
M: Which class?
E: Math.
M: Okay, does this mean no football workout?
E: Hold on a second.
Sets down phone. 45 seconds pass.
Teacher arrives. Finds phone. Picks is up.
T: Who are you holding for?
M: Edison A_____
T: Oh. Okay, just a second.
M: Okay.
Another 45 seconds, or so, passes.
Teacher returns.
T: He's gonna have to call you back.
M: Allright.
T: He's in the bathroom. He's sick.
M: Sick, as in we.need.to.pick.him.up. sick?
T: Yes.
M: Okay.
You couldn't write a life more exciting than mine. You think you can?
I dare you.
