A phone call...for dcneversleeps
Josh was a nice friend and gave me Danny's new phone number. Or should I be saying some random reporter's new phone number even though I made this a friends only entry and the only friends who would be reading this are my collegues at work. Yes, it just may be safer to say some random reporter, except for the fact that I've already written his name, so I'll just stick with calling him by his name. And I think it's about time I stop rambling here and talk about the phone call.
First of all, Josh went back to his own place yesterday, so I had the entire apartment to myself. I've come to the realize that it is entirely to quiet when you're alone. The apartment seems to echo with every sound and it's just...lonely. I spent most of the night fighting the silence with music and the television set playing as I worked on briefing reports. Yes, briefing reports are fun to read with red pens when one is alone at night. Let me tell you, it's enough to put you to sleep and dream of better things.
It took me reading these reports until 11 or so to get the courage to pick up the phone and call him. Okay, so I might have started to dial the phone a few times and hung up before it started to ring but that was only eight or so times. Shut up okay. Just shut up all of you who feel the need to make a comment about that. I can handle the press corps at their worse but I can not pick up the phone and call someone I may possibly be in love with am friends with.
So it was 11 by the time I finally managed to dial the number and stay on the line while it rang. Maybe I shouldn't have called so late, it's not like everyone keeps the same hours that those of us who work in the West Wing do. That thought did cross my mind as the phone was ringing and I almost hung up, but he did pick up the phone and by that point I couldn't hang up. The main reason he probably has caller ID and would call the number back and then I'd be up a creek without a paddle. It's been four months, two weeks and 3 days months since I've so much as heard his voice so it took me a minute to actually say anything. (This is making my creditabilty as a press secretary go down the drain isn't it?)
I am not going to give you a play by play of the entire conversation Joshua as parts of it were private; and I highly doubt Danny will tell you either so you needn't waste your time calling; unless of course you think he'll actually tell you; but the one main point that even Josh brought up is that he's no longer in "my press room" and he's no longer relying on the White House for his information; at least at this point. So technically, if I wanted to, I could pursue a relationship with him. And I'm saying I want to.
Any questions Joshua; or anyone else for that matter?
