It’s been an odd morning.

My alarm went off at 6:20, but I refused to be entirely roused.  I’d had a late night, full of Nathan Barley and OpenTTD.  It was a particularly rewarding evening.

I persuaded myself to stop pressing snooze at about 6:40 - it was then I took a better look at my phone and discovered that I had a msised call from some unknown number.

0450037385.  Hrmm.

I decided to call them back, to either greet whomever I forgot to add to my new phone in the upgrade, or to inform them of their error.  They didn’t answer, so I dismissed it as a wrong number, until they called this morning without leaving a message.

This piqued my curiosity.

I p0honed them back.  A woman answered. An extremely cranky sound 30-40 something woman.  I explained the situation, asked her how she got my number, and why she called me in the middle of the night.

She launched into an angry, questioning rant, askign if I knew a “Ken”, how old I was, why I was messaging this “Ken”, all the while building a picture in my mind of some fat middle aged bogan.

I inisisted that I didn’t know what she was talking about and hung up on her in the middle of a barrage of insults.

I sent her an sms informing her that I would prefer that she didn’t contact me again, and that I hope she sorts out her Ken dilemma.

So, if you know who this batty old woman is, please inform her of my innocence.  And tell Ken to stop whoring around.

  1. Nice one. Let’s hope Ken isn’t a crazy psychopath intent on slicing people up… Nah, you need to watch Dexter.

    But you’re right, that is bizarre.

  2. That is hilarious! I’ve had a few like that but never actually someone looking for their husband! Or bogan, or … yeah whatever they call them these days.

    I’m half tempted to SMS that number and tell them I have Ken hostage :)
