Sitting in the train heading to the other side of Wyoming, the guy sitting next to me answers his annoying ringing cellphone. I only hear one side of his conversation with his wife, but what he said was just plain hilarious. From the tone and the look on his face, I made the guess that he was in for it when he got home. The man wasn't older than 30 and hadn't been married long, so he doesn't know you shouldn't
make your wife mad at you.
"Hello? Oh hi Honey. How's California? What about my little girl, is she doing good? That's great!", the guy blurted out. He was silent for a long time.
Then he finally said, "I'm on a train in Wyoming. Yes, I'm heading home. Once I get off the train, I'm getting on my flight home. I got you a present."
Another long silence, but I could hear the the lady screaming something on the other end.
"No I didn't. I told you I cut my ties with her when we got together."
More screams. More silence.
"Please believe me. I don't know where she is. I promise that Mariska isn't apart of my life. Babe please."
Again with the screaming.
"What do you want me to do? I'm sorry if you don't believe me, but I'm on the way home."
"Yes I have the Hyena Burgers you wanted plus the Snail Ice-Cream."
That is all I got of the that because he went to the bathroom and came back talking to Mariska.
"Hey love, sorry I was talking to my wife on the other line."
Silent.
"Yep. Uh-huh. Yeah babe. I'm about 25 minutes from the station. She did ask about you and I told her that I have no contact with you. Mariska, now why would you think that? I have the papers in my duffel. I am gonna get her to sign them when I get back to Cali after seeing you."
More of the boring silence.
"Ok well we are at the station and I see you. Be off here in a few. Love you. Bye."
I think that was the weirdest phone conversation I have ever heard. Snail ice-cream? Yuck. I would just assume suck a ho-Bo's toe. I hope his wife finds out before he gets home so she can have his stuff packed and on the porch.
