Kitties - Today's musings is actually not on a cat related subject, but rather something that happened to my Mommie. She is old, really old and she has had many jobs. Back a long, long time ago she worked at a hotel as a phone operator. This was so long ago cell phones were not widely in use! She used to get some of the stupidest questions asked of her and she always wanted to give a snarky answer but of course could not. So in today's posting she is going to give you the answers that she wished she could have. Sorry I am not musin' today, but it has gotten cold here in Dallas and frankly I would rather be snoozin' than musin'!
Caller: Hmm, yes, are you still located at Coit and LBJ?
Me: No, we got tired of the scenery and moved all 20 floors of the hotel down one block. You can now find us at Coit and Forest!
Caller: Room 412
Me: That line is busy.
Caller: Well, how much longer will he be on the phone?
Me: Well, I going to give him just five more minutes then I am going to go to his room and make him hang up! Try back in six minutes.....
Caller: I need to speak to my husband in Room 930.
Me: I am sorry that line is not answering.
Caller: Well, just where is he?
Me: Well according to the GPS we make ALL of our guests wear, he is currently in a bar off of Harry Hines trying to get himself a little something, something - if you know what I mean!
Caller: Yes, I am in Room 1220. Can I use the phone in the bathroom to call out?
Me: Yes
Caller: Will they know that I am in the bathroom?
Me: Only if you yell out "Score!" at the wrong time!
Caller: Can you tell me how to get to your hotel from the airport?
Me: Sure, which airport are you flying into?
Caller: Umm, I don't know. Does it matter?
Me: No not at all. Just drive towards all of the big tall buildings, then drive around in circles for 5-6 hours. You are bound to pass by us eventually!

Our Mum was laughing at your blog today - she said it's funny how what you want to say and what your actually say can be so different.
