I got another phone call from Obama today. Here’s the transcript:
Brooks: Hello?
Obama: Hello, Brooks, it’s President Obama.
Brooks: Oh, hi. It’s good to hear from you.
Obama: What are you up to?
Brooks: Nothing much. I ran out of stuff to do. I’m just sitting on my couch. I like it. It’s comfortable.
Obama: You are so lucky. I don’t have that kind of luxury here. It’s busy time from the moment I wake up. I never get a moment’s rest. I can’t even take a nap. It’s do do do do do all the fricken day. I was just hoping it would let up, but I don’t see it happening. I just…I don’t know.
Brooks: Dude, you know. You like to be really busy. Otherwise you wouldn’t have run for President.
Obama: Yeah, of course. You’re right. What was I thinking?
Brooks: It’s okay. I’m your reminder guy. I’ll let you get back to work. I’m going to continue sitting.
Obama: Okay, well then, always good talking with you.
Brooks: You too, bye.
Obama: Bye.
