It seems to me I am always the sensible one. (quit laughing!) Yet my girlfriends are always …. zany. In one way or another, the people I surround myself with are out there.

Here is a true phone conversation between me and one of these friends: (the weather is awful and we had a bad connection)

Me: this connection is really bad

Her: I bet it’s all this rain we’re having

Me: yeah, our cable has been going on and off

Her: and I have my phone down my pants.

as she said that, she put me on hold to answer her call waiting. I was left howling with laughter. When she came back on the line

Her: what’s so funny?

Me: you have your phone down your pants??!!

Her: yeah?

Me: no wonder I hear the ocean!
