proof that there are people out there who are worse at talking on the phone that i am.

i placed a call to vandriver --

vandriver: hullow??

ace: hey, vandriver!

vandriver: {silence}

ace: okay, well, i wanted to let you know i am going to take my own car this morning.

vandriver: {unintelligible mumbling}figure{unintelligible mumbling}

ace: okay, so i will see you monday!

vandriver: {hangs up}


i am thinking that thing he said in there is either that is what i figured -- meaning he figured i called b/c i was taking my own car -- or that figures -- meaning it figures that i would drive myself on a rainy day. in the first case, he is being a hopeless ass b/c if he figured that is why i called, why answer? just let me leave you a vm. in the second case, he is being a hopeless ass b/c if it figures that i would drive myself when it rains, well then it also figures that there is something wrong w/ the way he is dropping me off and leaving me to walk thru the rain. in conclusion and taking into consideration the convo-ending hang-up, he is a hopeless ass.
