Is your mommy home?

I get phone calls every day from solicitors. Today I had something happen that hasn't happened in awhile. Mostly due to the fact that I don't answer the phone unless I know who's calling. But today I just picked it up without checking the caller id. The lady asked to speak to The Hubby. I said he wasn't in. Then she asked if me if my mommy was home? I just about lost it. It took all I had not to start laughing on the phone. My friend JC was here and she saw me trying hard not to laugh. Then she heard me say....no she's not here. And then I pretended to take a message. JC asked who that was...I told her it was a solicitor and she wanted to speak to my mommy. Then we both just cracked up laughing.

That is hilarious! My favorite thing to do, is to pretend I don't speak English very well...so much fun to toy with those people.

i always tell the people who try to get me to vote i'm not a US citizen.

works like a charm. course one guy actually asked me if i had proof i wasn't a US Citizen..so i just slammed the door in his face.

I'm ok. Thanks for asking. I've just been really busy the last few days. I'm going out of town tomorrow so I probably won't be posting for a while.
