Long rambling voice mails. I promise I will call you back as soon as I am free and you can tell me all about it.

No matter how many times I tell my father that I will not listen his voicemails he still does it. Hi crackhappy. This is your dad. It's ummm let's see. Friday the 20th at about.... 10:15 am. I'm here at the hardware store and I there is this tool I was looking at that I wondered you could help me get a cheaper price on. This tool is just like my dad used to use in 1954, with my uncle hap. Hap was a sailor in the merchant Marines in world war I, and the name of his boat was... Hold on a second I'll get it. Oh right, it was the Jenny Marie. this is but a small sample of the voicemails he leaves

Do you ever listen to the end to see if he tied an onion to his belt? It would be hilarious if he was doing a bit from The Simpsons

When he dies you're gonna miss that shit. I'd reccomend saving a couple of those voicemails.

That's a good point. I have a few videos I've taken of us sitting and chatting by the pool in Bali, camping in the Sierra Nevada, christmas in St. Croix, and thanksgiving at my grandma's house, but I think you're right, I should save some of that super mundane stuff too.

Hey Bones, this is Jackby, it's about 2 AM on Friday and I was just calling to chat. I guess you're asleep. Guess that makes sense. It's 2 AM. I was just talking with the others about something I couldn't remember the name of and thought you might know, what's that thing that's really annoying? You always used to talk about it. Yeah, yeah, I'm leaving them a voice mail! They didn't answer. I think they're asleep. Crazy stuff. Sorry about that. Anyways, what was I saying? HA! You can't hear me, I've got to figure it out on my own... Hmmm........ OH! Annoying stuff! You used to be annoyed by something. I was trying to remember but I couldn't do I called you. Anyways, call me back. Thanks! Bye!
