I hate cell phones but I needed one for traveling so I bought one of those cheap Walmart trakphones. I bought 800 minutes which should last me a long time. It appears that whoever had my phone number before me, some woman named Paulette Wooten, was/is having difficulties and I get to hear all about it.
Daily, I receive 3 or 4 calls per day for this woman and occasional text messages. I get to read how guys are “thinking about” her. But more fun is getting phone calls from the power company, gas company, collection agencies, and now investigative offices. It appears that Paulette Wooten did not pay her bills and didn’t bother to notify people of a change of phone number. She is now about to get “picked up” by the man. In fact, I suspect that she is still giving out her old (ie my new) phone number. Last night some dude called me asking for Paulette. I just make stuff up now. Last night when asked I told the guy that I am “The Jam Master”. I think from now on I’m just going to start telling people that Paulette is dead or maybe I will just make sex noises and tell people to call back when I am finished with Paulette. My caller ID says my phone # is still Paulette Wooten.
Anyway, that’s my little slice of Jerry Springer life.
