I didn’t even know I did it, but someone believes I did.
Today, while at work, I got a call on my cell phone.
Me: Hello?
Caller: Hello?
Me: Hello?
Caller: Hello?
Me: Hello, can you please identify yourself.
Caller: You keeked mah dug.
Me: (not understanding) What?
Caller: You keeked mah dug! You keeked mah dug, I saw you!
Me: Ma’am, you have the wrong number.
Caller: I do not, You keeked mah dug, You came on mah property and you keeked mah dug!
Me: (sort of laughing) Um, who is this, please identify yourself, I assure you I did not kick a dog today.
Caller: Yes you did! I saw you keek mah dug!
Me: Who is this! (at this point I am wondering if this is a prank call from a crazy friend, but I don’t know anyone who has such an accent OR who has a similar intonation and timbre.
Caller: THis is frufru’s mother, you keeked mah dug!
At this point I hand the phone over to favorite coworker, because I am laughing too hard.
Favorite coworker: Who is this?
Caller: You keeked mah dug!
Favorite coworker: Please verify your number, I assure you she would NEVER kick a dog!
Caller: You keeked mah dug (or some such incoherent rambling)
Favorite coworker: You have the wrong number. Lady, you are crazy!
She hands the phone back to me. Woman is still going on about her dog so I hang up.
All I have to say…..with a name like FruFru, even though I never kicked her dog, I want to now!
I am going to call PITA! Lol.
That call was a PITA, but I am going to assume you mean PETA.
HAHA, that is hilarious! You have the best conversations with people. Geez, I wish I had stuff like that happen to me! Maybe it does, but it’s in German that I don’t understand? Hmmmm….
Little bunney frufru I dont want to see you keeken ma dug.
Was the call on your cell phone or work phone?
Which ever how did they get your number?
Sounds like a random call or some one that knows you giving you a hard time.
Did you check the number called in and do a lookup to try and see who it is.
It was to my cell phone, and the number was listed as private. The call could have been from anywhere in that case.
I really suspect that it was a misdialed number, and I have gotten great pleasure today in the thought of her trying to redial the number after I hung up and getting a completely different person, and realizing how unhinged she was to a complete stranger.
Then again, if she is as unhinged as she sounds, she might not have realized it. She didn’t seem to have any concept that favorite coworker was a completely different person than I was.
One of our patients escaped and called you. You evil dog kicker, you. You’re now in the ranks of James, who was accused of kicking a duck once. He *should* have kicked the duck, as it kept biting him, but he didn’t. That didn’t stop some old woman from chewing him a new one for kicking it though. Shells & James, Dog and Duck Kickers. 😀
