Talking to my wife on her cell phone while she's at work (probably a no-no)...get a beep from my mother.. I answer...ff to our usual fussing. I click back over to wife...don't even think to say "Hi honey" or "Sorry" before ranting about mom's ridiculousness (accompanied by my usual flowery language) only to hear a soft-spoken middle eastern man say "Umm. Ummm. Actually Jessie will be right with you"
*nodnod*
Never met this man before in my life...cussing like a sailor after 3 months on the ocean!
