Unexpected Call

I was minding my own business on the bus when I received a call from my old friend, Chris. He had called a week earlier and seemed in a rush, though he wanted to make quick plans to give me a call some time soon and when would I be available? I told him my general schedule and was looking forward to catching up with him. We hadn't talked in nearly a year.

Hey Michael, how are you doing?

Good....where are you calling from, I don't recognize this number.

Oh, I'm just calling from my friend's house. So, I was wondering something.

Oh yeah, what's up?

Do you want to hang out tonight?

..... SHUT....UP.......NOFREAKINGWAY! YOU'RE IN WINNIPEG!!!!!!!!!

At this point most on the bus thought that I was obnoxiously crazy, but I couldn't care less. Chris phoned me up last week and tricked me into giving him my schedule so he could surprise little old me! I took him to the Manitoba Legislative Building, the Old Spaghetti Factory at The Forks, and then we met up with my friend Milena and enjoyed a beer and some company at Cousins Deli.

I think I made him really jealous that he doesn't live in Winnipeg. And it serves him right!
