fleetwood and i have been talking for a couple of years about how we need to make tin can telephones so that we can talk to each other at work.
so, today i finally made them. she gave me soup cans, i brought in string and a nail. but when we tried to use them they didn't work because we were so close to each other that i could actually just here her talking without the can up to my ear.
we were all sad because we wanted to whisper to each other.
then i looked at my telephone on my desk. picked up. dialed her desk number. she answered.
fj: "this is fleetwood."
lb: "can you hear me?"
fj: "i can hear you"
lb: "can you hear me because you can hear me or can you hear me through the phone?"
fj: "i can hear you through the phone."
why had we never thought of that before?

maybe it's because we both have our ringers off and we can't ever hear the phone ring, whereas on a tin can telephone, you can definitely hear the sound of a ball point pen banging around on the inside of a can!
i wonder what kind of weird realization we're gonna have after we try to make the velvet ropes for our cell block.
