The phone rang, no biggie. I hardly ever pick up the phone. Seriously, I am not a slave to the phone. If everyone who is nearest and dearest to me is accounted for then I will pick up the phone if it is convenient and if not, I’ll just call the person back.
Well, this time everyone was accounted for, but I wasn’t really busy and I was sitting next to the phone so I picked it up. The voice on the other end was immediately recognizable as my friend Bob*. Well, obviously Bob was not expecting me to pick up the phone because he was having a conversation with his wife, Bella, while he presumably waited the 5 rings for my machine to pick up.
I would have said hello, but when I put the phone to my ear I could hear that he was talking and this is what I heard:
…I guess so…well, if Cesar takes a nap soon we should make love…
Apparently, that was greeted with an approving nod of some sort.
…great…
Then my friend realizes that he has not heard the sound of the phone ringing for awhile and that the machine has not picked up.
…uh…Hello?
I respond:
…Yeah, good luck with that nap. Hope it works out for ya.
He says,
Oh you heard that? (I hear his wife make some mortified noise in the background).
I can almost hear him blush,
Well, you know how it is when you have kids. You have to plan these things out.
Laughing hysterically, I say,
You might not want to plan THAT when you are calling other people.
I never did find out if Cesar took that nap.
*all names have been changed to protect the shameless.
Tracie says
Hahahaha! At least he was planning it with his wife and not his mistress.
Eva Gallant says
Too funny!
Alicia says
That is hilarious!! That is going to be the joke of the year now!
frugalmomknowsbest says
This is hilarious. Apparently he was too preoccupied to notice the ringing had stopped
leethehotflashqueen says
LOL! That's a great story!!
DysfunctionalMom says
OMG, I would be SO embarassed! That sounds like something I would do.

Haha! Yet another proof that men cannot multitask…
frau says
OMG that is so funny and I love that you said something!He will probably avoid you for awhile.

I hope things worked out for them.

yesthatislovely says
LOL, that's too funny. At least they were taking to time to be intimate with each other?
Betty5 says
ROTFL!! hahaha, that is so funny!
cinner says
That is really funny….just what you needed to know, not. Hilarious, I do agree with kys, at least he was planning with his wife!
ck says
That is hilarious! You probably don't have to worry about him calling you again for awhile…
Kimberly says
Bwaa Haaa Haaa!
That is fabulous. I bet they were mortified, but hey, you gotta do what you gotta do right?
brainella says
Dang. Just when you think you can make things happen, Mami catches you! 🙂
The K Family says
LOL. Here is my outlook on the phone, and tell me if you agree with me on this…
The phone is for me to get ahold of you. Not for you to get ahold of me.
🙂
Sophia's Mom says
LOL! True that these things need to be planned out sometimes but not while waiting for the machine 🙂
For their sake, I hope cesar did take a nap!
the worst is when you think the kid went down for a nap and they wake up 20 minutes later when you are already getting your groove on.

oh THAT WOULD HAVE MADE SUCH A GREAT FRIDAY PHONE CALL LOL, LOVE IT;)
loripeterson says
He really said that? Wow. If Hubs said “we should make love” I would die laughing at him.
unknownmami says
I didn't even think about that! Yes, it would be a great Friday phone call.
Meeko Fabulous says
Oh no! LOL! I've heard some interesting stuff on the other line too, but nothing like this! I'm grabbing your button. 🙂
unknownmami says
I will return the button love.
unknownmami says
It worked my Cribster.
Rebecca says
Love it! I'm frequently talking to my husband or kids when the phone is ringing but that's because they all think that as soon as I hit the talk button on the phone, it's time to ask me questions. Thankfully our conversations have never really gone….there. Ha ha!
Rebecca says
That's funny!
Camp1974 says
That's fantastic. When a man has something on his mind, he HAS SOMETHING ON HIS MIND!
bethakaconfusedhomemaker says
Note to self: pay attention to what I am saying when calling others because you are so right that's not the type of planning you really want to involve others in.
parentingbydummies says
That's hilarious! I hate when people butt call me, but that would be worth it!
auntof14 says
Hahaha, I love it! I can imagine Bob's embarrassment, LOL
helenmcg says
ROTFL! Oh, that's a classic!
speakingfromthecrib says
i hope this works i tried to comment yesterday and nada it processed and never sent the msg so i gave up! great funny story! i am guilty of finishing my sentences too after someone picks up but nothing like that
kandjplus5 says
Ha! Classic! And I guess you could count your blessings that there wasn't any more detail!!
whendidibecomemymom says
Hahahahahaha…. that's funny. I think I'd have hung up really quietly and had a good laugh. 🙂
vetsmom_rgv says
That is a funny story…. I wish we did plan our “encounters.”
blueviolet says
Awkward!!! At least he used an appropriate term like making love!
MarfMom says
Hahahaha! That's a really funny story but I would have been mortified if I'd been him, lol.
yonca says
OMG! That is GREAT!!!
Gibby says
Ha ha!! That is awesome!
38traci says
Gives new meaning to booty call.

lisleman says
that's a great one – do you know his wife too? This could have been a Seinfeld episode. I've heard some funny things on voice messages when the caller doesn't know they are being recorded but nothing like this.
franticmommy says
Intense embarassment is sometimes a passion-killer…unless it's been a rreeaalllyyy time since, you know. Then most couples can pull off a quicky while the kid is in the tub.
Not that I'd know or anything……:)
The Absence of Alternatives says
So jealous. Our kids don't take naps any more and I have never been in that kind of conversation…
Kristin_The_Goat says
Here I was reading a few blogs to wind down so I could go to sleep and now that I've laughed so hard I might not quite be in the calm and sleepy mood that I was looking for — Oh well – it was a hell of a story! Congrats to Bob and his Bride 🙂 and I hope the babe took a nice long nap.
Stacy (the Random Cool Chick) says
AHAHAHAHA! That's just way too funny! Wonder if Cesar ever got his nap? 😉
Mommakin says
Oh, that is too funny! Hey! What a brilliant freakin' comment! should I save it for my comment post?
macey says
Bwahahahaha! That's freakin' hilarious.
Michelle says
🙂
mamasmurf says
hehehe *snickering* busted!
mamakatslosinit says
Whoa whoa whoa…what's going on over here?? New digs? New design? Love it!
And holy smokes, yeah, might I suggest NOT discussing the logistics of your love making whilst making a phone call!?! Hahahaha…that's awesome!
Lori says
Rofl. I have a picture in my mind of Bob's mouth calling you on the phone while Bob's, you know, other part was talking to the wife. And that part won, as it always does! 😉
