At some point in our lives, we’ve all made the “sorry you’ve got the wrong number” call.
Years ago I called my little sister’s house on Super Bowl Sunday and as soon as her husband answered, me being me, bursts into…
ME – “Can you fucking believe that ref?? He’s either working for the other team or he’s fucking blind!”
MY BRO IN LAW – Laughing, laughing, laughing.
ME – “Okay… Let me talk to my sister.”
MY BRO IN LAW – “Okay… Who’s your sister?”
ME (being me again) – “Okay jackass put my sister on the phone.”
More laughing and now I’m out of patience because of course, I would call my sister last minute for a recipe on the day that I need the recipe!
Anyway…
MY BRO IN LAW – “No, really who’s your sister?”
Now I’m all pissy.
ME – “Just get my sister please.”
Now it’s roaring laughter and then the light bulb comes on…
I DIALED THE WRONG NUMBER!!!!
Now I join in the laughter and I’m apologizing and whoever is on the other end of the phone NOT my bro in law was watching the game – thankfully – and he thought the ref was crooked too.
Anyway, long story not so short. When I came across the pic below it made me think of my “sorry wrong number” story.
Raise your hand if you’ve got a “sorry wrong number” story because you know I want to hear about it!
Drop it in the comments below.
If your “sorry wrong number” story is a long story not so short, blog about it so the world wide web can laugh along!
Happy June and happy Saturday, folks!
Who’s got plans??
Wherever you go, whatever you do, be safe and have fun!
I wish for you beautiful blue skies, plenty of sunshine and temps perfect enough to not melt your face off.
You’re welcome.
MIMI’S THOUGHT FOR THE DAY –
Only 6 months away…
Don’t shoot the messenger.
Time – 9:56am
Temp – 64 degrees F/ High 76 – Chance of storms.
Mood – Better
Bitch, bitch, bitch – Zero
Best thing – Waking with purpose.
Be well.
Mimi
That’s hilarious – and I love the story that prompted this. But you are very naughty for mentioning the C word in June🎄I know I have had wrong numbers but for me to remember what happened, it would have to have been this morning – my memory is appalling!😱Happy June!

I can not think of any wns’s but then I can;t remember if I turn off the burners from cooking eggs for breakfast. No Wrong numbers these days, if the number does not look familiar I don’t pick up and neither does anyone else..

I don’t call people much, so haven’t made any wrong number calls, but I have received a few. These days my phone shows me the number calling and if I don’t recognise it I either don’t answer or answer with “Fraud Squad how can I help you?”. Funny how fast they hang up.

On Super Bowl Sunday and in your own area code, it was probably a safe call. That is funny. Alas, no good wrong number stories from me.
