Mixed Messages

From out of nowhere, I got this text message the other day...


I have no idea who Andrew and Kristen are. Obviously this is yet another wrong number - this time in text form.

I figured I better nip this one in the bud so I texted her back and said, "Listen "Grandma," first of all, Christmas is over two weeks away. I hope this doesn't mean you're going to be bothering me every day until then. And secondly, Andrew and Kristen are sick of you, so buzz off!"

That seems to have done the trick. So far, no response.

...

Ok, just kidding. I wouldn't do something like that - especially this close to Christmas. My actual response was...


What gets me is that: a) "Grandma" didn't bother to thank me for responding and, b) she didn't bother to wish me a merry Christmas. Apparently, unlike Andrew and Kristen, "Grandma" couldn't care less if I have a nice holiday.

Maybe "Grandma" doesn't realize that, thanks to her text message, I now have her phone number.
