Who’s a Loser?

Published by auria cortes at 9:46 am under Uncategorized

Oh pick me! Pick me! I know. It’s Linda. Why? Cuz she forgot her big sister’s birthday. Your present is on its way, Bobbi.  

Happy belated birthday. 

Even though it’s not Conversation Thursday, I’m posting the following exchange I had with my little sister and my brother’s answering machine.   

(Linda calling Tata – her little sister) 

Linda: Did you remember Bobbi’s birthday?
Tata: Yes, I had her over for lunch.

Linda: Why didn’t you remind me?

Tata: I didn’t know I had to.

Linda: Well you did.

Tata: Too bad.

Linda: Damn, I can’t believe I forgot. Now you look better than me.

Tata: That’s my plan.

Linda: You suck.
 

(Linda calling Manolo – her little brother) 

Answering machine: Please leave a message after the tone.
Linda: Do you know that Bobbi’s birthday was yesterday?

Answering machine: <silence>

Linda: Well, I hope you called her. Cuz the rest of us remembered.

(Linda Hangs up)

    Ah, Loser Linda. Tsk tsk tsk. You do know that Manolo was screening his calls, eh? I’m guessing he knew what to expect when he saw the caller ID. Of course, I forgot Bobbi’s birthday, too, so, well, “hi, pot, I’m kettle.” Card’s in the mail.

    “Tata” that’s such a cute name.
    LOL @ your disclaimer. Hey, don’t feel so bad, last year I forgot my BFF birthday. Her birthday is around the holidays and I was so busy, that I forgot all about it. She forgave me and we’re still BFF.

    Rain,

    Tata was upset because she said that everyone was going to say what the fuck when they saw her name (that’s a nickname, btw). But I told her I couldn’t use Auria (that’s her real name) because my bloggers would get confused.

    Btw, Manolo is a nickname as well. His real name is Manual. And Bobbi’s real name is Barbara.
