You guys are making me jealous. ;_; *grim nod* If they can't call me then perhaps I could call them? *isn't all that talkative* I'd prolly have nothing to say. And kill my phone bills. But... so very tempting >.> Could someone ask them if they tried calling me? *checks how much it costs* Maybe I can convince my parents... |

Woah, my plan says it only costs 5 cents per minute for calls to the US.  |

*still hasn't managed to come across any of Pratchett's books she hasn't liked* Funny that they still haven't made any Discworld movies. I'm glad they haven't. Most of the humor is in the writing and the footnotes and stuff. Unless they made it a totally off-the-wall movie with a narrator, it would fall far short of the books. I dunno... They did a pretty good job at turning Hitchiker's Guide into a movie... |

But... so very tempting >.> Could someone ask them if they tried calling me? I know what you mean... The conversation I'll have is probably going to be something like this: Me: So... um... yeah... Hi. MINE will be me trying to understand what THEY say, and them trying to understand what I say XDD |

Probably. XDD I wish he had recorded it, but since he was outside... Yeah... He did tell me, however, that they were going to do it later, when people were about to go. =3 Who is they, and what were they going to do? |

OKAY DETAILS:
I first talked to Ikkin about how the Meetup was going and why she hadn't phoned yet.
Then I talked to Rider and said "You sound taller on the phone." followed (laughing in the Backround) by me speaking in a British Accent XD
And then I talked to Fj0rd and asked her if she had made out with Kitty yet (more laughing in the backround) Then I got passed on to Kitty who said that people at the Planitarium had better British Accents than I did, then I talked to LoTF, it was the funniest.
Me: "You sound funny."
Him: "No I don't!"
Me: "You do."
Him: "You sound funny!"
Me: "Oh Bring it on!"
Him: "Let's go, right here, right now, through the phone."
Me: "I'm going to punch the phone, I'm going to punch you through the phone."
Him: "And then, I would punch the phone and get killed because it's not my phone."
Me: "Kill or "Kill"?"
Him: "What?"
Me: "If you could see me now, I'm doing airquotes on the last kill."
Him: "HE'S DOING QM's THROUGH THE PHONE!"
*laughing from backround*
Then I got passed to Rider where we talked about Boston and York's sports teams, how Pirates ruled, and finally passed on to Ikkin who I found out I was pronouncing her name wrong (I pronounce it Ekken when you should pronounce it Ekk-eye-n XD) She then threatened to set Sev on me in the form of my BBQ.
So I said I would hit the BBQ with an axe, and in the process to get the axe, a pitchfork fell on my foot XD
And that was it, so great to hear everyone ^_^
