| Wrong Number |
'Hello' - I said.
'Hi honey' - he said.
'I think you got a wrong number' - I said.
'Oh, this is not Michelle' - he said.
'No, its not, I think you got a wrong number' - I said.
'Oh I am sorry' - he said.
'That is okay' - I said waiting for him to hang up 'and don't do it again', I thought.
'You have a nice voice' - he said.
'Good bey' - I said and hang up.
I really wanted to say something to him, 'What happened to Michelle, she doesn't have nice voice anymore?'. Or 'Do you want to talk to my husband, he has nice voice too'.
Well in case like that we just have to bite our tongues, as we know this could lead to a trouble. May be he didn't get the wrong number; just phoning randomly to strike a conversation with a vulnerable woman, and then more and more. Scary call that was, all I can say.
People can such morons!!
ReplyDeleteUgh! Leaves a bad taste in the mouth, doesn't it? I loved the responses you would have LIKED to have given, but I think you were wise to bite your tongue, as you say, you have no idea who you are dealing with, and it was probably best not to offer him any further excuse to extend the conversation.
ReplyDeleteBTW, thank you for all your lovely comments, it made a great start to my day, I really appreciated it (hugs).
Scary, indeed!
ReplyDelete«Louis» hopes you don't 'hear' from him again!

Anna, more to come in the Stanford series.
ReplyDeleteAnna, still more images of Stanford Memorial Church to come, followed by photos of the Rodin collection at Stanford.
ReplyDeleteThe answer to this week's Qu'est-ce que c'est is this is Leland Stanford's crypt. Enlarge the image, look on the right.
Maybe just as scary is that some women would stay on the phone!
ReplyDeleteThat happened to me about 45 years ago. This young man (before we ever knew about caller ID) said hello when I answered, and he asked for so and so, and I said you must have a wrong number and he also said, well you sound like you have a pleasant voice, and I just hung up. Another time, when I answered the caller said, may I speak to your Mother, and I thought who would be calling my Mother at my house and then I realized he meant me, I said well I'm the Mrs. here and he said I thought you were a child. LOL That made my day.
ReplyDeleteSorry I haven't been around for a while, it just seems to get so busy in the summer months.
