I've Been Pranked By Brad Carter

HA HA HA!!! It couldn't be anyone else. I was just scrolling through my caller ID list, looking for someone's phone number, and I noticed a few oddities. John Sever (from Colorado Springs, CO), Jason Nesmith (Galaxy Quest), Santa Claus, and someone with the exact same name as my husband (from Plantation, FL) have all called me with in the last few days. Hmm, seem odd? I actually noticed when "John" called me a couple of days ago, but he hung up before I got to the phone. I thought "That's weird, did John get a cell phone and not tell me. I wouldn't put it past him to get a cell phone and never tell anyone, since he hates to answer a phone. But the area code is not Peoria. Weird." Well on a whim, I called John Sever (the new one) yesterday, and had a short chat. He was a real person named John Sever, and he didn't seem to know who I was. "Weird." I thought. Today when I scrolled through the ID, I realized that there were too many weird things in there to be coincidences. So, I got on my computer and looked them all up in the yellow pages. Yes, they all exist, and they are all legitimate phone numbers. I only know one person who could have done it. Fess up, Brad. I knew I jinksed myself. It could be a lot worse, I'm sure. Do your worst, I ain't afraid of you!!!!!! Okay, maybe I am, please don't do your worst. You could do it to John, then I could have a laugh, and not have to suffer the consequences. On second thought, I don't think I'd wish that on John either. Love ya Brad!

Do you really think I'm the sort of person to pull pranks? Especially by phone? Come ON...

You did pretty much paint a target on your forehead and dance around at the shooting range.

Okay, I'm ready to admit that I'm responsible. Only because you challenged me with a threat of sending 100 missionaries after me!

The last number I sent I decided would be my last, because I was tired of you not noticing. For all I knew, you guys didn't even have caller ID. Or didn't check it. I sure never look at mine.

I was so excited about a business name I found last week. It was called Booga Booga! But I tested it on my own line first and it didn't show up. I think it went out of business or something.

And I can't believe Luke Skywalker didn't work! I tested it on my own phone first and it came through for me.

I'm sorry about any hangup calls you got. I just let it ring once and hung up quickly, hoping you wouldn't even notice the phone ringing. But I guess the service I used stayed on the line longer so you probably answered and nobody was there.

Anyway, bring on your hundreds of missionaries!

Too bad about Booga Booga. To this day Buger is still my favorite word. I actually did notice when Santa Claus called, but I just figured it to be some sort of charity foundation for granting children's wishes or something. The John Sever thing had me puzzled for a day, though.
