I Thought I had to PAY for Talk Like That

So Matt calls me in the middle of the day today.

There I was, driving along with Rebecca-Linh, on my way to pick up P-Bo from school, when I hear Matt’s hushed-because-I’m-at-work voice breathe huskily through the phone:

Still took a moment of utter speechlessness until suddenly…  Ah HA! BONUS! He’s at work and he got a BONUS

So congrats, Matt, and thanks, Matt’s employer.

Whew.  Sure did dodge that bullet. (And still biting my tongue over smartass “quarterly boner” jokes. Just too easy.)
