The Wonder Caller
Saturday night, I got home from the karaoke (k'ke is easier to type) bar about 11pm to an answering machine message.
"Hey Carol. What's up? Give me a call when you get this. Bye."
Caller ID box said "Private Caller". I didnt recognize the voice, tho it was female. Process of elimination, I called or emailed or IM'ed every female I thought it could logically be, so I wouldnt be guilty of not returning the call ... and then I continued to stew about it for the next 48 hours.
NOBODY calls me ... especially not that leaves a message like that! Everyone has their own specific nickname, or lingo, or way of leaving a message. My answering machine doesnt say my name, so it wasnt someone just randomly dialling.
I HAVE NO IDEA WHO IT WAS!!!!!
I must have played that message three dozen times, listening for a clue ... listening for the tone of voice, an inflection, a hint, an emotion ... I STILL have it saved on the machine.
