BEEEEEEEEEEP

Hi, Jenna, it's Mark. Hey, listen, thanks for telling me about that Italian place. Babs and I went there a couple days ago and we loved it. Anyhow, if you still want to borrow my handi-vac you can come by and pick it up anytime this evening. I love you, bye.

BEEEEEEEEEEP

Hi, Mark again. Sorry about that "I love you" thing. That's just a habit from when I talk to Babs. You know, "Kiss kiss, I love you, bye." It just slipped out, sorry about that, I don't actually love you. Bye!

BEEEEEEEEEEP

Hi, it's Mark. When I said "I don't love you," I didn't mean I don't love you. I do love you, of course, I just don't care for you. I mean, I don't care about you.

Wait, hold on.

I do care for you, I do love you. But, you know, in a friendly way. I mean, I'd never consider sleeping with you. Talk to you later.

BEEEEEEEEEEP

Did that sound as bad as I think it did? I'm really sorry. All I'm trying to say is that you're a wonderful friend and very dear to me in a platonic way, and that's great. Okay. There. I'm glad that's over with.

I mean, of course I'd consider sleeping with you! Heck, given half a chance I'd be over there in ten minutes flat with equal numbers of roses and condoms. But hey, I'm involved, you're involved...oh, shit.

Um, if this is Tom listening to this, um, ignore that. Hell.

BEEEEEEEEEEP

Hi, honey, it's Tom. Listen, Mark just called me at work and offered to pay for a few games of pool. For some reason he's real big on getting there right at 5:30, so I don't have time to come home first. Why don't you meet us there once you get this message?

Kiss kiss, I love you, bye!
