twisting

Picked up the voice mail from Manuel. He sounded irked. Frustrated that he can't reach me by phone. And frustrated that I'm not confirming.

Man, you don't answer your phone, you don't answer your cell.  I wonder what kind of plan you have.  Is it that expensive?  That you have a phone plan that probably is not working for you. 
 
Anyways, I responded to your email about Saturday.  So, you have the free will to arrange your own agenda.  But again if the weather is going to be good, I would like you to confirm with me that you are coming [to Baden].  If you're not coming, that's fine, that's OK, even though the weather is good.  OK?  But let me know.  Now we are twisting the functions here.

I kept a copy of it.
