Re-Random Calls
I wasn't right in the head, but no words were said except to the secretaries, a housewife, and machines.
I left weird messages about fake products like a kind of heating pad only different. I spoke bad spanish.
I was like a sad Jerky Boy but with no schedule or agenda; just depression and sometime pity sex from an ugly girlfriend.
Finally I hit a low point, heard my own fallible voice.
Talked for an hour to a too young housewife about Lyme and pick lines; about broken down cars, lost jobs, and suicide.
We talked in an interview style and my stomach filled with bile; it came to an end and she broke through my line with a question of her own.
She asked me my name to define the call as real and I gave her a fake name and hung up the phone.
