The Square Root of Pi

A bit of silliness...

     Once, while experiencing technical difficulties I called her on the phone, acting like nothing big was going on and making small talk. She said my name and I paused.

     “Corey?”

     “Yes.”

     “What is the square root of Pi?”

     “Why the f**k would I know that?”

     “Exactly my point, call me back when you have something to say or when you are ready to tell me what’s wrong.”  She hung up.

     I went to the desk drawer and pulled out my calculator.  I called her back and she answered.

     “The square root of Pi is 1.77245, I lost my job and Katy died yesterday.” I hung up.

     The phone rang back immediately and I let it go to voice mail. I waited and then listened to the message. Her voice was angry and frustrated.

     “You are an ungrateful a*****e and the worst friend in the entire world…there, I hope that makes you feel better.”

     She did, she always did. I texted her a smiley emoji and a fat cat thank you sticker and told her I owed her drinks.  She sent back a flipping the bird emoji and vomit emoji.  I smiled.
