Speechless fool

The phone rings. I look to see who’s calling. Nobody I know apparently.
I answer: “Hello? Who do I have the pleasure with?”
Caller: “Yo…it’s me.”
Out of all the people I didn’t expect to call me you were definitely in the top five, top three even.
And out of all the people I wouldn’t mind freezing up around you weren’t even in the top 100.
So naturally I did just that, I froze up and sounded like a speechless fool , uttering no more then a few words along the lines of: “ ‘ehm’, ‘ow’, ‘yeah’, ‘really?’ and ‘uhu’.
I actually think those were the only words I used.

Funny how some people can do that to a person who is otherwise reasonable articulate.
