It was Sunday afternoon. Rae and I were folding clothes and getting rid of the old, the stained and the tight. I've gained a little weight since Rae and I met and the clothes seem to be made smaller and smaller every year..but I digress.It was during this exciting time of clothes folding that the phone rang. I didn't get up right away because I was mid fold but the phone kept on ringing. It rang and rang so I finally got up. I couldn't find the headset so I went to the main phone base and grabbed the phone to see who would let the phone ring 7 times in a row. As I read off the number from the caller ID to Rae, she said that it might be Brian's friend calling but the number seemed wrong. I had heard the last name before but didn't know for sure. So, hoping beyond hope that it wasn't a telemarketer, I decided to answer the phone. Yes, sometimes I don't answer; My house, my rules. Today was my lucky day. This was the very first time I have gotten a phone call like this.
"Hello?" The phone was quiet. I paused to listen, then I heard someone stuttering to say something. He stopped mid-ramble, slowed his thoughts and then,
Caller: "Are you at the Bar?"
Me: "Um, Nope. I'm not at the bar."
Rae's head snapped in my direction. She had the puzzled look I was hoping for on her face.
Caller: "Do you know "Miss No name on the blog post"?" His words with a little stutter/slurring in his voice.
Me: "Yes I do know her. Why?"
Caller: "Are you sleeping with her?!"Me: "No I'm not sleeping with "Miss no name." I replied
Rae was sitting there, her mouth open, eyes wide and about to roll off her chair with inaudible laughter.
Caller: "Are you at the bar with her right now?! How do you know her?!"
Me: "No, I'm not at the bar. I'm at home. I do know "Miss No Name" because her children are friends with my kids. Why are you calling my home?"
Rae, at this point in the conversation, let out a huge BWAHAWWW the size of Texas. I had to cover my other ear just to hear the caller's response.
Caller: "Miss No Name is cheating on me! I'm going through the caller ID and calling all numbers to find out who she's cheating with."
I haven't laughed that hard in quite a while. I could tell that he had liquid balls giving him the guts to call people. I wonder if he was using phoneinfotracer.com to get the address of the one guy who would cop to the rendezvous?
All I know is that I'm glad we have that service. I now know where the guy lives and what his name is if he ever calls again. That's one phone call I'm Answering!


2 HOWLS:
Now that is something that has never happened to me! Ha! I usually let my phone go to voicemail unless I recognize the number. I bet that call was entertaining though.
