A Leeeetle Spooky
Hoooooly frijoles...
Okay...Tomorrow might be Halloween, but it's not too early for some poopt-up squak to be goin' down...
Okay. I go to my aunt's house to get some hair product, tomorrow being Halloween. We mess around with stuff, and I come home. Mom and my sister are out doing a play rehearsal. Kouji's hanging out with a friend. I call to see if he's still out, he is, I hang up, sigh and go back to watching my retarded computer load the last two percent of the gmail hompage (the one it started loading about twenty minutes earlier). That's when the phone rings.
I figure, "Hmm, that was quick...maybe Kouji and his buddy want me to come eat dinner with them or something..." I answer the phone. And I hear this:
"*automated voice* SBC communications. You are recieving a collect call..."
I think, Why would Kouji...?
Then I hear, "...from --RAY--"
I look at the cat. 'Ray'?
"...at the Harris County Correctional Facility."
What the HECK?! I don't even KNOW anyone named 'Ray'!
"If you would like to refuse this call, hang up n--"
I hang up. Stare at the phone. And think, That was weird...A prank? Naw, they obviously had a wrong number...
Thirty seconds later, the phone rings again. I sit there, perturbed, and pick up the phone. Once again I hear, "SBC Communications. You are recieving a collect call..." only this time, the call is from "--please answer the phone--" I hang up again, before I really think about it. Then it dawns on me:
What if this dude has connections? What if he's like, "A'ight that's it!" and calls his goons on whoever it is he was trying to call? What if he MEANT to call my number? What if my mom is living a ~DOUBLE LIFE~!? And here I am, home alone, no one to call or talk to except the cat (aka RAY)...
These are the sorts of things that only happen to me. But I don't complain, because, ya know, it allows me and my pocket knife to spend some real quality time together. Alone...in the dark......scared crapless....
Good times.
