I was just reading Deb's blog and was reminded that I really enjoy hanging out with her. So, I thought I'd make it public.
Also, I'm in Idaho visiting family. Good times will be had by all.

Cell Phones
So last night I was downtown and I got to hear the Abbott's play! It was a lot of fun. Kyle told a funny story about the one and only time he used a cell phone. It reminded me of my own cell phone story.
I was driving home from the San Fransisco Airport and remembered that I was supposed to call my parents letting them know we were headed home. I went to the speed dial for home. I got a man who kind of sounded like he was Chinese, of course I knew this had to be Aaron, so laughed and asked to talk with Dad. He acted as if he didn't know what I was talking about. I then demanded to talk with Dad or Mom. He continued acting as if he didn't know what I was talking about. So I hung up the phone. I called right back hoping that someone else in the house would hear the phone ringing. No such luck. I again get this man who sounds like he is Chinese. He's telling me he has no idea what I am talking about. I am now frustrated with Aaron and tell him, "I know it's you, Aaron, now give me Dad!" the response is "I do not know, I do not know. Prank call, I have not time for this. I have business to run." And I can't believe that my brother is taking this joke so far. I mean sure it's funny once, but this is too much. I hung up. I called one more time but when I got to the Chinese sounding man I just hung up. I then tried our other house number. The call was unable to go through. Weird. I tried my last resort and called the Sutherlin's. Sue called home and got through to my parents, Aaron wasn't even home. It turned out there is a 438- in the San Jose/San Fransisco area. I had been talking to a real Chinese man, who had a real business to run, who really knew nothing about me, Aaron or my dad.
