• The phone buzzes on my night stand. One glance at the area code of the imcoming caller and my hopes shoot through the roof and into the smoggy Los Angeles atmosphere. It appears to be someone I very much want to speak to; someone I've been eagerly awaiting to hear from for a while now. "One sec, this could be important," I say... It's not necessarily a life-changing call, but a considerably consequential one for me, nonetheless. 'Finally! This is awesome.' ..."Helloo!", I answer anxiously ...Only the voice that answers is not the one I had hoped to hear at all. In fact, it's a voice I very much did not want to hear; a voice that makes me want to stick my finger into my eye socket, up to my brain, and swirl it around. It's a voice that drives me fucking crazy. Quite possibly the last voice that I wanted to hear at this point in time... My heart sinks into my stomach. What an unbelievable bummer. It's so painfully unfunny... which makes it so hilarious...

Hah! Hah! HaaAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
