So if wanna give me a call you can (630623?). As far as I know (??) got in it. But you got a way if I could talk to you today. Okay, bye."

This email was sent from a mailbox that does not accept replies.




This was my message on my Vonage Visual voicemail when we got home this afternoon. I was very confused for obvious reasons. So I listened to the message. And it was very understandable in audio format but I remain confused. The reason for my confusion is that this is what the message actually said:



"Hey Michelle it's Ruth-Ann. I just wanted to let you know that I looked up today at the end of the day and Tayton was trying to put glue in his ear from his glue bottle. So if you wanna give me a call you can. As far as I know none got in it but you got away before I could talk to you about it after school today. Okay Bye."



Of course when I read the message I called Korbin in and asked him if he put glue in his ear today. He was also confused. Then I clicked to hear the message and as it started playing Tayton chimes in:


T: "the bottle was shut so I didn't actually try"


Me: "That's technically true but was the glue bottle in your ear?"


T: silence, no response in fact I'm not even sure he's breathing


Me: "I need to know why the glue bottle was in your ear so I can blog about it because that's strange."


T: "For no reason"


Me: "were you just being silly?"


T: "Mom don't you know those two boys that sit right there (making hand movements) I was trying to make them laugh."


Me: "Ok that makes perfect sense to me now, thanks for clearing that up and from now on lets keep our school supplies out of our ears, nose, mouths and our eyes!"


T: giggling "okay"
