Ring ring ring

Incoming call from
Danny-boy

You got to be freakin' kidding me.

Kidding isn't freaky!

It is when it's THREE IN THE MORNING!

Well, I'm sorry I don't live in your time zone.

You will be sorry.

I'm also sorry I don't have enough hands to drive and call you at the same time.

Oh, um... Don't you have Bluetooth?

I'm also sorry my car's too old for Bluetooth.

How?! You have enough money for an expensive modern car.

Yes, but I also have enough money to buy an antique car.

You're driving a non-economical car cross-country. Brilliant, Einstein.

Actually, I'm driving my uncle's car - which also doesn't have Bluetooth - and I left the antique one in Vermont.

I'm sure your uncle's thrilled about that.

He is. He showed it off at work yesterday.

Smart guy.

Yeah, the cousins got the smarts from him.

I assumed. Your dad and your uncle were brothers, right?

Right, they could've passed as twins.

So everyone's last name is Kessler, right?

Right.

And if I remember correctly, you looked like your dad, right?

Right.

Do your cousins look like their dad?

All but Cecilia. She's the only blonde one in the bunch.

Do people constantly mistake you for one of your aunt and uncle's kids?

All. The. Time. When people meet us, they're always like, "Oh my goodness, what a big family! Nine children!" And Aunt's always like, "We don't have nine children." And they're always like, "I counted nine children." And Aunt lines them up and counts them off: "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. We have eight children." They like to ruffle my hair while saying something like, "But what about this poor boy?" Aunt always tenses up and is like, "He isn't ours. He's my brother- and sister-in-law's." And I'm always like, "I can speak for myself, Aunt." But I never say that 'cause you never talk back to my aunt. Then the person's always like, "How's your vacation been so far, boy? What do ya think of this place, hm?" And then we awkwardly change the topic.

Those voice impersonations though.

I know, I'm awesome.

You woke me up at three in the morning. You're no longer awesome.

It's six in Vermont.

However you're not in Vermont anymore. Adjust to the time zone you're in.

I know, but I don't want to drive through the mountains in the dark.

It's dark at three, especially in the middle of the winter.

I get it, I get it. You want to go back to sleep.

Took you long enough. Goodnight, Danny-boy.

Ta ta for now, Carole dear.

Beeeep

Call ended

I swear, if he does that again, I'm going to introduce him to Virginia's fist.
