I was asleep when
my cell rang. I don’t usually look to see who is calling if I’m sleeping. Mostly because it’s usually my mom, and I
rarely answer her calls when I’m awake, much less when I’m checked out.
I was just skidding back towards sleep ten minutes later when it rang again. And ten minutes after that when I finally gave up and answered with an abrupt “What?” hoping that my belligerence would scare off the mom-type and allow me to get back to better things.
