This is Mike.  I met you tonight at the Dresden.  I, uh, just called to say I, uh, I&#8217;m really glad we met and you should give me a call.  So call me tomorrow, or , like, in two days, whatever.

This is Mike, again.  I just called because it sounded like your machine might&#8217;ve cut me off before I gave you my number, and also to say sorry for calling so late, but you were still there when I left the Dresden, so I knew I&#8217;d get your machine.

(beep)<br \/>\nMIKE: I just got out of a six-year relationship.  Okay?  That should help to explain why I&#8217;m acting so weird.  It&#8217;s not you.  It&#8217;s me.  I just wanted to say that.  Sorry. (pause) This is Mike. (beep)<br \/>\nHe dials again.  There&#8217;s no turning back.<br \/>\nNIKKI (recorded):Hi.  This is Nikki.  Leave a message. (beep)<br \/>\nMIKE: Hi, Nikki.  This is Mike again. Could you just call me when you get in?  I&#8217;ll be up for awhile, and I&#8217;d just rather talk to you in person instead of trying to squeeze it all&#8230; (beep)<br \/>\nHe dials yet again.<br \/>\nNIKKI (recorded):Hi.  This is Nikki.  Leave a message. (beep)<br \/>\nMIKE: Hi, Nikki.  Mike.  I don&#8217;t think this is working out.  I think you&#8217;re great, but maybe we should just take some time off from each other.  It&#8217;s not you, really. It&#8217;s me.
