Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring...
So I called my parents at work and the phone rings like 30x. It rings so much that I'm disconnected.
I call back.
My dad answers and instead of saying like "Hello, Clothing Care of Simsbury." He just yells "Hello!" but not like a happy person, more like a loud, angry guy.
Me: Hey Dad.
Dad: Who is this? Me: It's me. David.
Dad: Who? Me: Your son.
Dad: Who? Me: You know your son. David!
Dad: Oh oh. There's a customer here. Why'd you call? Me: Just to say I made it to California okay.
Dad: California!?!!??!! What are you doing there? I'll get your mom. Me: Just hangin out.
Mom: Jong Deh (my Korean name. My mom is excited to hear me on the phone). ... You're staying with your friend... what does he do for a living?... Are your other friends there yet? Have fun... Oh make sure your friend gets you a girlfriend when you're out there? ... Some form of this conversation happens every time with the folks. So absurd, but they're the best.

Funny stuff.
Reminds me of the convos I have with my grandma every time I see her:
Her: Are you still in school?
Me: No, I graduated. You were at my party.
Her: Yeah, that's right. Do you have a job yet?
Me: Yeah, I write for that online music mag I've told you about 15 times.
Her: Oh yeah, but why would I want to look at that? I don't know those bands.
Me: Well, you could look because I write for them, I guess...
Her: Are you married yet? Have a girlfriend?
Me: No.
Her: I'm going to go talk to your cousin and his girlfriend. |
