Early mornings.

So, I havent written anything for a few days. Things like this happens from time to time. I got a life too you know.

What?

My belly button isnt picking itself. And I got ice that needs to be watched melting. Aside from those things, I've been extremely tired the past days. I've had a couple of potential employers calling me. And for some reason they always call early in the morning. Why would they do that? They know I dont have a job, or I wouldnt have contacted them in the first place. Sine I dont have a job, I'm most likely asleep at 8 in the morning.

It's like they are testing you. Call early, and incase they can tell they woke you up they gonna think. "Hell no, I'm not giving that lazy ass a job. Sleeping at 8 in the morning like that."

And believe me, I'm doing my very best to not sound as if I were asleep when they call. It's hard and takes alot of practice. Basically what you have to do is to not use your brain, and just respond on a reflex on everything they say. Usually its nothing important anyway.

So this morning the phone rang again around 8 in the morning, ofcourse I was asleep. My reaction to the phone was to jump out of my bed and stand on the cold floor while answering the phone and doing my best to sound as if I have already been awake for atleast 2 hours, and already had my 1 hour morning walk. The man who called asked me a bunch of question, and I just replied whatever came to my mind.

I have no idea what so ever what I actually said to him. It might have been something like this though.

Me: Hello...
Man: Hello, I wish to talk to Zanno.
Me: Yes, we have ducks.
Man: Umm, are you Zanno?
Me: Absolutely.
Man: Oh ok, well we might have a job for you. But I would like to meet you before we make a decision.
Me: I'm pretty sure I didn't put it there on purpose.
Man:...
Man: Can you make it 10.30 on monday?
Me: Sure, that'll be perfect.
Man: Alright good, I'll see you monday then.
Me: Don't wait up for me.
Man: eeh, well..bye.

As you can see conversations can be quite confusing in the morning. And I vaguely remember that I was supposed to write something down so I would remember it later. But before the thought went to action, I fell asleep again.

A few hours later when I woke up, I knew someone had called me about a job, and that they wanted to meet me. Well knew might be an exaggeration, because to be honest I wasnt really sure that anyone had actually called or if it was just a dream. Atleast I didnt know until I checked my cellphone. Then I knew for sure that it was something I was supposed to remember, something that I cant remember for my life. I couldnt even remember the name of the guy who called.

So I figured the best thing to do was to call him back, pretend that I remember everything but lost the note where I wrote down all the important stuff. So I called him back.

Man: Hello.
Me: Hey, it's me. Zanno. We spoke this morning?
Man: Ah yes, how's the ducks?
Me: Huh? umm, well.
Me: Anyway, I lost the note where I wrote down the info you gave me this morning. Can you please repeat it for me?

To make a short story even shorter, he gave me the time and place for me to meet him on monday.

Atleast he didnt ask me to meet him earlier than 10.30 in the morning. Should be enough time for me to wake up, and not make a complete fool of myself when I meet up with him.
