I was at work today trying to catch up before a daunting week of evaluations and interview when my phone obnoxiously beeped and vibrated with a picture message. The following conversation was too funny to not share.

Zac (pix message): I can’t wait to blog!

(My picture from kindergarten.)
Me: Hahah
Z: I forgot I had an older brother
L: That’s horrible
L : You are so mean.
Zac calls, and I answer it too late. So he continues texting.
Z: I’m sorry.
Z: Please call.
I call and the conversation continues on the phone.
L: You’re so mean.
Z: I found it while decorating for Christmas.
L: It’s painful, I know.
Z: It’s ok. Everyone goes through an awkward stage. Yours was just an angry lesbian one.
At least two straight minutes of simultaneous laughter to the point of tears.
L: (Some inside PTC joke.)
Z: No one should have ever cut your hair that way.
L: Talk about making my face look perfectly round. Blame mom.
Z: Miss you.
L: Miss you too.
We say our goodbyes and hang up
Z(text): I love you.
L: Love you too.
Z: That was the best laugh I’ve had in a long time.
L: I was crying
Z:

No wonder he’s my best friend in the whole world. No one else could get away with that and, instead of inspiring anger, have me laughing.
