Playing With Telemarketers
I was at home the other night in the middle of my dinner when the phone rang.
ME: Hello.
AT&T: Hello, this is AT&T.
ME: Is this AT&T.
AT&T: Yes, this is AT&T ...
ME: This is AT&T.
AT&T: Yes, this is AT&T ...
ME: Is this AT&T.?
AT&T: Yes! This is AT&T, may I speak to Mr. Byron, please?
ME: May I ask who is calling?
AT&T: This is AT&T.
ME: OK, hold on.
At this point I put the phone down for a solid 5 minutes thinking that, surely, this person would have hung up the phone. I ate my salad. Much to my surprise, when I picked up the receiver, they were still waiting.
ME: Hello?
AT&T: Is this Mr. Byron?
ME: May I ask who is calling, please?
AT&T: Yes, this is AT&T ...
ME: This is AT&T?
AT&T: Yes, this is AT&T ...
ME: The phone company.
AT&T: Yes, sir.
ME: I thought you said this was AT&T.
AT&T: Yes, sir, we are a phone company.
ME: I already have a phone.
AT&T: We aren't selling phones today, Mr. Byron. We would like to offer you 10 cents a minute, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
ME: Now, that's 10 cents a minute, 24 hours a day?
AT&T: (getting a little excited at this point by my interest) Yes, sir, that's right! 24 hours a day!
ME: 7 days a week.?
AT&T: That's right.
ME: 365 days a year.?
AT&T: Yes, sir.
ME: I am definitely interested in that! Wow!!! That's amazing!
AT&T: We think so!
ME: That's quite a sum of money!
AT&T: Yes, sir, it's amazing how it adds up.
ME: OK, so will you send me checks weekly, monthly or just one big one at the end of the year for the full $52,560; and if you send an annual check, can I get a cash advance?
AT&T: Excuse me?
ME: You know, the 10 cents a minute.
AT&T: What are you talking about?
ME: You said you'd give me 10 cents a minute, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. That comes to $144 per day, $1008 per week and $52,560 per year. I'm just interested in knowing how you will be making payment.
AT&T: Oh, no, sir. I didn't mean we'd be paying you. You pay us 10 cents a minute.
ME: Wait a minute, how do you figure that by saying that you'll give me 10 cents a minute, that I'll give YOU 10 cents a minute? Is this some kind of subliminal telemarketing scheme? I've read about things like this in the Enquirer, you know.
AT&T: No, sir, we are offering 10 cents a minute for
ME: THERE YOU GO AGAIN! Can I speak to a supervisor please?
AT&T: Sir, I don't think that is necessary.
ME: I insist on speaking to a supervisor!
AT&T: Yes, Mr. Byron. Please hold.
At this point, I begin trying to finish my dinner.
SUPERVISOR: Mr. Byron?
ME: Yeah.
SUPERVISOR: I understand you are not quite understanding our 10 cents a minute program.
ME: Is This A T &T?
SUPERVISOR: Yes, sir, it sure is.
ME: (I had to swallow before I choked on my food. It was all I could do to suppress my laughter and I had to be Careful not to produce a snort.) No, actually, I was just waiting for someone to get back to me so that I could sign up for the plan.
SUPERVISOR: Ok, no problem, I'll transfer you back to the person who was helping you.
ME: Thank you.
I was on hold once again and managed a few more mouthfuls. I need to end this conversation. Suddenly, there was an aggravated but polite voice at the other end of the phone.
AT&T: Hello, Mr. Byron, I understand that you are interested in signing up for our plan.?
ME: No, but I was wondering - do you have that "Friends and Family" thing because I'm an only child and I'd really like to have a little brother...
AT&T: *click*

Something old
A lot of people talk about finding love, needing love, wanting love, knowing love, loving love, hating love, giving love, receiving love, showing love, and things of that nature..
But not me.
My relationship with love is a complicated one. Actually, we don’t have a personal relationship. We didn’t grow up together, and we definitely weren’t high school sweethearts. Me and love...
A *random* Birthday Memory
For my 25th birthday, I got a room downtown at The Hilton Garden Inn and celebrated with a few of my closest friends *and a few people I’m just cool with lol*.
Anywho, the first night we were there we were all getting ready to go out, and my boyfriend came up to the room. He didn’t go out with us, but he came and hung out with us for a while. When he got there we everyone was just...

Red Flag
About a week ago I went to dinner with one of my best friends and two of our friends. Now me and my bestie have boyfriends or *something like it* and the other two women are single. Well, we got on the subject of relationships and at that moment I realized why they could never be in my REAL FRIEND circle.
One of them said ‘I don’t respect girlfriends.’ And her friend just...

Day 2: The meaning behind your Tumblr name
ORGANIZED RANDOM CONFUSION really just describes me and my life. There are times when I am very random with my thoughts and writing styles and even the way I live my life. But within the randomness comes lots of organization in my mind anyways because everything fits to me. Confusion to me is just the uncertainty of the things that are to come in my life. If that makes sense..

Me: I hate going to sleep and you’re not next to me..I guess that’s why I’m still awake at 350ish. I’ve never been in a relationship like this. I’ve never been sooo happy all the time with someone. I’ve never wanted to spend so much time with one person. I’ve never wanted to be apart of someone else’s life..until I met you....
Late Night Thoughts About JDC
It’s 3:08am and I’m still awake..
Well actually I just got home a little while ago from my bf’s house and I thought I’d be going to sleep by now, but I cant. I already miss laying next to him. This happens all the time though. Every time we hang out, as soon as he’s out of my presence I want him to come back.
Idk what I’m gonna do when he moves.

My Fears
I get scared too!
When I think about how my life would be without you.
Without your smile, your jokes, the funny stories about you and your folks. I get scared too. Trying to imagine my life without you in it is one of the hardest things to do.
Sometimes I get scared because I think there is someone else out there somewhere who is a better fit for you than me. Someone more attractive, more...

What I'm thankful for...
So yea..tomorrow is Thanksgiving!
There will soon be an array of posts, pictures, and comments about what everyone is thankful for. Most of them will be something like: IM THANKFUL FOR MY FAMILY, MY FRIENDS, TO HAVE A JOB..*shit like that*
The things that I am thankful for are a little different. At the moment I’m unemployed. But to my delight, I am sooo happy to be without a job. I am...
When I'm not with you
It doesn’t matter if I saw you everyday, once a week, every other month, every six months, or once a year..when I’m not with you, I miss you

I found my romantic comedy relationship!
Just because he likes your imperfections, showers you with affection, and to you and your closest friends it seems like you have a very strong connection; Even though he laughs at your jokes, would fit in perfectly with your folks, because your mom absolutely adores him, and surprisingly your brother’s don’t ignore him; So what if the thought of you makes him smile, or your touch...
