A message from Doug on my voice mail…

“Hello there. Can’t seem to find the phone again?  Check all the counters. … Not there?  Better check by the computer. … No luck?  Maybe you left it in the refrigerator again.  Ugh oh.  Not there either? … Let’s go check under the couch.  Careful! Lift with your legs, not with your back!  Back to the kitchen…that’s it, down the hallway, turn right…watch your …step!  Don’t trip over the Legos!  Is it under the table?  Whoops!  Don’t hit your head!  Are you wearing your helmet?”

The next message, from the automated voice messaging system…

The third message…

“Hello, this is Allison from the Simsbury Public Schools.  I’m calling to let you know that we reviewed your paperwork, we’ve checked your references, and—”

The final message…

“Your inbox is 100% full.  BEEP!”
