I was in a meeting at work today, and my mom kept calling my cell over and over and over, without ever leaving a message. Normally she will call once and leave a message, because she knows how my boss is about people using their phones while on the clock. Because she kept calling, I could only assume something bad was going on, like somebody was in the hospital or something.
The moment I get out of the meeting I go off and give her a call. "Is everything ok?" I ask when she answers. She says they are, and wants to know why I'd assume they weren't. "Well you kept calling over and over, and you usually don't do that!"
So, why did she keep calling those half dozen times? Because she had a Christmas gift for my dad that she was trying to hide from him, and wanted to know if she could leave it inside the breezeway of my house, for me to put in the basement when I got home. :problem:
Reminds me of the time my gramma called my apartment at 7 a.m. (I was in college and definitely not awake at 7 a.m.) I thought someone had died and subsequently told her to never, ever call at any time ending in "a.m." unless it's an emergency.
