4 AM
the phone rings.
The phone ringing at 4AM is scary.
I wake up enough by the 4th ring to fly out of bed, afraid something is terribly wrong.
"Hello?" I say.
A young woman says: "Can I put my sausage in your oven?"
At this point I sigh, partly pissed, partly releived because no one is hurt or dying, and I say to her: "You woke me up for THIS?"
Without missing a beat she responds: "Did you say you're up for this?"
Had I been more awake ... and not so freshly recovering from being scared ... I may not have hung up ... I may have praised her on her ability to think on her feet. Her response was hilarious.
I'd like to meet her.
