unexpected phone calls I had laid down on the couch at two in the morning and woke to find that it was four in the morning. Somehow two hours had slipped by me. I closed my eyes again and it became eight in the morning. Thus began my Monday. I will go for weeks without hearing from anyone and then I get two phone calls in the same day. The first phone call was from Brenda. She had called at one in the morning, but I was online at the time and didn't know it until later. I'm not sure why she was awake at one o'clock on a Sunday night, but she was and decided to call me. It was the first time this year that I heard her voice either live or recorded. The other phone call was less dramatic. A woman that I worked with at my old job had called. She had bought an automatic banking machine, which is a little ironic. Where we used to work we serviced automatic banking machines and now she owns one. Most of the day was spent tending to unfinished chores. Bills were paid and I had the oil changed on my car. Then I spent the rest of the day visiting with my parents. When I got home, I returned Brenda's phone call, but she wasn't home.
