please mr. postman

i received a call at 8:30 am today. half asleep, i was reluctant to answer. its dr. ledbetter 'bedwetter' *snickers*. "Hey Brent, I was just returning your call from yesterday; you wanted to know about the CSE (Center for Science Excellence) field trip?" I responded, "yes," still groggy from slumber. a few moments ramble on for what couldve just been two minutes, but seemed like a lifetime. to hush his informative mouth & return myself to sweet sleep, i simply interrupted, "is it alright if i just met up with you later today, possibly?" he replied, "Yeah, sure. You can meet me in my office from 1:30-2:00." i follow up with an ok & hang up before either of us have a chance to say thank you or bye. Right afterward, i realize "shit.. i forgot they scrapped my article for the CSE yesterday."
