It's the simple things

It was months ago, I was lying in bed, tossing and turning, longing to fall asleep. My phone started vibrating. Who could possibly be calling me at 12:30 in the morning? I picked up my phone, only to see the words "restricted" printed clearly across the screen. Naturally I set my phone back down, and drifted off into a deep sleep.

The next morning, I picked up my phone and listened to the voice-mail left by, Mr. "restricted". If there's one way to make a girls morning, it's by serenading her, and my voice-mail did just that. Whomever it was that left me such a pleasant surprise, thank you! Months later, I'm still thanking you. To be precise, every 20 days I thank you when my phone prompts me to delete or re-save my messages. Consider that message re-saved for 20 more days when I'll get to listen to some boy (who is still a mystery to me) serenade me with the words to "When You Say Nothing at All" once again, before the message is saved yet again. The song may be totally cheesy but it makes me happy every time I listen to it, and as of lately I'm slightly obsessed. It's the small and simple things that make my day!

That's sweet. Maybe you have a secret admirer. That would be a fun voicemail to get.

Hey I remember that incident! Remember when we thought it was our favorite person?
