The conversation....

So, I often spend my time driving talking on the cell phone with some member of my family. To be safe I try to use the speaker phone though it often leads to some awkward hellos as there seems to be a pause on my end for some reason, we usually end up saying hello a few times and then ensuring we can both hear each other. So yesterday I decide to call my sister, Tammy, (she's a funny gal) to say hello as I was driving back from a friends. I had the car window down a bit so I wasn't sure if the phone had connected or not but heard some sort of sound so I said hello....here is the conversation that followed....

Me: Hello?
Tammy: Hello?
Me: Hey!
Tammy: Hey!
Me: What are you doing?
Tammy: What are you doing?
Me: Asked you first!
Tammy: Asked you first!
Me: huh?
Tammy: huh?
Me: Tammy, quit copying me
Tammy: Tammy, quit copying me
Me: Wait a second....
Tammy: Wait a second....
Me: Tammy, is this you?
Tammy: Tammy, is this you?
Me: I was beginning to think there was an echo but I can hear you breathing
Tammy: I was beginning to think there was an echo but I can hear you breathing
Me: Or is that the echo of my breathing?
Tammy: Or is that the echo of my breathing?
Me: (me breathing louder)
Tammy: (her breathing louder)
Me: You can't keep this up you know
Tammy: You can't keep this up you know
Me: Yodel-a-dee-hoo
Tammy: Yodel-a-dee-hoo
Me: You're good
Tammy: You're good
Me: Ogala-boogala
Tammy: Ogala-boogala
Me: blah da la ba me lo ba ga
Tammy: blah da la ba me lo ba ga
Me: hmmmm.....
Tammy: hmmmm.....
Me: (whispering) can you copy me now?
Tammy: (whispering) can you copy me now?
Me: Ok...I think it's an echo
Echo: Ok...I think it's an echo
Me: Dag nab it....I've been talking to myself this whole time....
Echo: Dag nab it....I've been talking to myself this whole time....
Me: ....I sure hope this isn't being recorded on her answering machine
Echo: ....I sure hope this isn't being recorded on her answering machine

It was! Sigh.
