Claudia! Oh, am I nothing? Nothing? You are shouting like a band sheet? Just thought I'd say hello to you. Hello! Now, what do we do this afternoon? Well, I just put the baby to sleep.
Why don't you? No, I'm not interested in sleeping. Good for you. Boy. What do you feel like doing? Well, I don't know. I'm tired of reading. I'd like to do something different. There's not much different to do around the house.
I don't know much. Only I knew how to play chess. We could play chess. Each game takes hours, I'm told. Chess is too quiet anyway. I'm full of pepper. Oh, oh. Say, why don't you call up somebody, David?
Whenever I have nothing to do, I call up somebody. What for? To talk. Talking is a wonderful time passer away. You ought to know. Why don't you call Roger at the office and talk business?
He's probably busy. Now, you know, he loves to talk to you. I bet he doesn't expect to talk to me on the telephone for days. Yep, I might call him at that, find out what's going on.
Day where you are, I'll bring the telephone right to you. I'm not a cripple, I can walk. You've got plenty of chance for walking from now on. You better make the most of this service with a smile business while you can.
