Phone: ring, ring.
Cindy: *whispering* Department E.
Mr. W: Oh, you’re still messing around over there?
Cindy: *whispering* I’m not messing around! We’re still on the record in trial. I’m working. There’s a difference.
Mr. W: I’m about to go home. You coming over right after you get out?
Cindy: *pause*
Mr. W: Hello? Are you coming over?
Cindy: *whispering* Actually, I was gonna go home, even tho I have no reason to…
Mr. W: You have no reason to go home, or no reason to come over?
Cindy: *whispering* Well, both. ha, ha.
Mr. W: I’m not enough of a reason?
Cindy: *whispering* A Riesen is a candy caramel coated with chocolate.
Mr. W: Oh. Well, I can stop by Rite-Aid and get a bag of Riesens. And then I can give them to you, and that way you’ll have a whole bunch of Riesens. But you’ll have to come here to get ’em.
Cindy: *giggling* So you’ll give me lots of Riesens to go over there? *looking up in alarm* *whispering* Oops.
Mr. W: *laughing* Yeah. I’ll see you over here.
Cindy: *whispering* Okay.
I think you two need to go get a job at Disney Land as Goofy & Pluto!!
But Pluto doesn’t talk! He doesn’t wear clothes! He doesn’t even walk upright!
I always think it’s funny (not that Mr. W did this), but when you talk to someone on the phone and you’re whispering, they whisper back (as if they have a reason to), it’s almost insinctual?
Yeah, that’s pretty common. I usually whisper, “You don’t have to whisper.” And then the other person says, “Oh. Oh yeah! Haha!”
Lol… That’s too funny!
You two are too cute! So did he actually get them for you?
No…he knows I’m on a diet. Haha. But he did offer after I got over there. I told him Riesens hurt my teeth.
