And I never fail to forget this when I do call him, so my message is always, "Who the heck was that?"<BR/><BR/>I know this won't help, but as the only person who never got any messages while living with two roommates, I took the opportunity to record this message: Hi. You've reached 555-5555. If this is Dave or family, she isn't here so leave a message and she'll call you back. If this is Mike or family, she isn't here either so leave a message and she'll call you back too. And if this is Fred, you've got the wrong number again. While we love the songs you leave on our machine, the person you are leaving it for isn't getting them. Dial carefully. *Bleep*btudahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15844967363037036715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34518678.post-31669231400359150972007-04-17T17:20:00.000-04:002007-04-17T17:20:00.000-04:00Just read "ex and the single girl" and liked what ...Just read "ex and the single girl" and liked what she used as her message - <BR/> "Not here.
