hahaha. so i just got off the phone with Sandy, and we giggled and cried (from laughing) for most of the conversation, during which she informed me that she had no idea that i hated talking on the phone until she read it on my blog yesterday. i told her it's because she and i don't usually have dead air, except when she's yelling at the kids, and i usually just ignore it because we laugh so much during the not-dead-air parts of our conversation that it's worth it.
so after 40 minutes tonight, we had a minor lull in conversation, and she said, "okay, bye." and i said, "okay, bye" and hung up, thinking, wow! what a good friend to not drag out the conversation now that we have nothing to say!
she called right back, and i immediately cracked up and asked, "what? did i hang up on you?" "yes, that wasn't my real 'bye'! i was making fun of you!" oops, my bad.
bye.
Was that the 8 minute lull?

it was, indeed, only it was the 8+32 minute lull. somehow, we only hit every 5th lull.
