First close call with one of my closest online friends. My plan was to start recording before I hit dial! But I missed it! His reaction when he answered was priceless. We planned to meet up with each other in person (which was a success) because we happened to be going to California at the same time. At this time, he had just got off his plane, and I was at a gas station in Texas (with this crazy storm brewing). Starting from where I live, it takes about two days to get to San Diego by car.
