I AM OUTSIDE YOUR HOUSE

(I was going to visit LaZorra the next day. I texted her in the morning with some info about my trip, but hadn't heard back from her yet.)

LaZorra: PHAN I LEFT MY PHONE AT HOME ALL DAY

ThePhan: LZ: Haha, I wondered if you had your phone on you. I texted you with details and stuff and hadn't heard back. But I figured as long as you got back to me by the time I got to Chicago in the morning, I'd probably be OK.

LaZorra: LOL

LaZorra: "Um so I AM OUTSIDE YOUR HOUSE are you going to let me in?"

ThePhan: LOL

ThePhan: And then fifteen more texts, finally ending in a simple, yet poignant ":-("

LaZorra: Aaaand scene.

Sentynel: Each text arriving slower, with more typos, as your fingers gradually freeze.

* iwpg awards LaZorra ALL the Oscars.

ThePhan: LAZORRA gets the Oscars?

* ThePhan was the one standing outside in the snow texting.

iwpg: She's the director. :-P

wintermute: For artistic direction.

* LaZorra sticks her fingers in her ears and wiggles her tongue at Phan.

* ThePhan sends yet more unanswered texts.

ThePhan: "Congratulations on your win."

ThePhan: "Can I still come to the after party?"

ThePhan: "OK, I'm standing outside the after party door. Can you tell the guy at the front here that I can come in?"

* LaZorra attempts to drink a glass of champagne with a lampshade on her head.

ThePhan: "It's getting kind of cold."

ThePhan: "OK, I'll wait like... five more minutes to hear from you."

ThePhan: "Five more."
