Pam: [over their phones] ”Hey, it’s Jim. Leave a message.” [beep] Hi.
Jim: “Hey, this is Pam. Leave a message.” Hey! It’s me. It is 5:03.
Pam: I figured I’d catch you walking to your car but—
Jim: Guess you must be out or something.
Pam: I’ll leave a message.
Jim: Is it me or are we a little off today?
Pam: I guess this is just one of those days. It’ll get better.
Jim: Hope you didn’t have any major laundry issues.
Pam: I finished my laundry. Got all my socks. Nothing like that time that crazy guy pushed you.
Jim: Hey, you remember that time I helped you do your laundry and that crazy guy came in and started yelling at you?
Pam: And then remember, we went shopping the next day to buy me a washer/dryer?
Jim: And yet here you are, back in a laundromat. You know, I’m just trying to help you, Beesly. Be safe.
Pam: You’re probably upset I’m even at a laundromat right now but don’t worry—I’m being safe. And I’m headed home—I’m headed to my dorm. Not home.
Jim: Wish you were home. Um, anyway—
Pam: Anyway, um… I miss you.
Jim: I miss you.
I guess this is my life now.
