“Hey, Quinn.” DB sounded despondent. “What’s up?”

“Apparently not you.” I’d never heard him so low. “What’s got you depressed?”

He sighed. “I’m bored. Lyn and Syd are out of the country, so I can’t even watch them make out. And do you know what I had to resort to doing?”

“I have no idea, but I’m sure you’re going to tell me.”

“Damn straight, I am. I’ve been watching All My Children.”

“Excuse me?”

“It’s a soap opera.”

“Today is Sunday.”

“I tape it during the week and watch it again on the weekend.”

“I see.” I bit my lip to keep from laughing out loud. “Well, you have been keeping busy.”

“Ha ha. Did you call to mock me?”

“Of course not. We’re family, aren’t we?”
