Phone Weirdness
I think there may be something wrong with my phone. Normally, I come home from work and the light is blinking. "You've missed some calls," it says. So I pick up the handset and scroll through the five or six calls I missed -- "Out of Area," "Out of Area," "Out of Area," etc. etc. etc. No voice mail. Generally, this means I've had five or six calls from telemarketers, who never leave a message. (If the call comes from a private number, the number usually shows up, and sometimes the name.)
Yesterday I came home to zero missed calls. That never, ever happens. We even get calls from telemarketers on the weekends here. And today? Again, no calls.
The only thing I can figure is, the phone's not working right. Because we never go 48 hours without any telemarketer calls. We generally get at least 5 a day. So if you've tried to call me and gotten no answer, maybe my phone's broken. Who knows?
Tonight I went to see The Importance of Being Earnest with Trish. We had a great time, and laughed a lot. Colin Firth is very enjoyable, although I have to say he didn't grab me by the throat the way he did last year in Bridget Jones's Diary (you may remember the effect that movie had on me, if you've been reading here awhile).
Today's a big birthday -- my biggest birthday day of the year. Laura, Clarissa, and Renate are all celebrating today. I believe this is the only day I have three birthdays to celebrate in one day.
Marty's coming home tomorrow and I am glad!
