Pocket dialing. It's a problem. And one I apparently have.
I miss my flip phone because it never pulled the mutiny card and called my speed-dial contacts.
Though, these unfortunate occurrences have had some benefits.
The Monday after Easter, I accidently called Oma. (For you non-German speakers, it's my dad's mom, or my gramma.) We had an interesting game of phone tag. She called me back, but I missed the call. So, I called her, and when she answered she asked me what I needed....I told her I was just returning her call. And then I started laughing when she said that I had called her first. Strange, but it did allow for me to talk to her on the phone, something I don't normally do.
I made my dad laugh last week because I called him on accident. He didn't realize until he had a missed called. When he asked me about it, I told him I hadn't meant to call him at all. Instead of being annoyed, he just smiled and thanked me for making him chuckle. (He still has a flip phone, so does not understand how this could happen.)
Kate probably gets the worst of it. I probably pocket dial her at least once a month. (If you read this Kate, I'm sorry, I don't know why my pocket dialing skills like 5 so much.) It's always a great conversation starter. "Hey, you called me earlier, but it was just noise. I figured I was in your pocket." Yes. And then we talk about her impending wedding. (Which is really weird because she's younger than I, but I'm happy for her as well.)
Why am I thinking about this today? Because my beautiful roommate, LeAnn, called me today. And I answered, ecstatic. "LEANN!" ... "You called me, like, twice." Oh. Ha. My bad. "I just wanted to make sure you weren't dying or anything." But now we have a phone date on Saturday, at 6am. Ha. (Just kidding, I think?) I guess we'll find out if she calls me at 6am.
The stupid thing? I can hardly get my key pad to unlock when I want it to. I don't know why it is so good at unlocking when I don't want it to.
I miss my flip phone.
