OOPS...WRONG NUMBER

My family often reminds me that the motto of my life is "If it can happen, it happens to Nickie!" Well, unfortunately they're right! Now, I can add another "happening" to my list!

I was trying to reach out to a friend via text to see if she could meet me for breakfast. I quickly typed in the number and sent the message. I received a reply that says, "I won't be available until later in the p.m. gotta work in a.m." I thought the response was strange because I wasn't aware that my friend had a job on the weekend. So, I responded and said, "Ok, how about later in the day?" I then get a response that says, "Depends on when IndyGo let's me go. Probably between 3-5." With my confused look on my face I thought to myself...IndyGo? IndyGo? Why is she working for IndyGo? I then responded and typed, "I'm sorry. What are you doing? I don't remember?" The response..."Drive Bus." What? I typed, "Huh?" Why would my friend be driving a bus? Was I missing something?

Then...my phone rings. It's my friend...

Caller: "Hi." (male voice)
Me: "Hi. Who is this?"
Caller: "Mike Melton"
Me: "Who?"
Caller: "Mike Melton"
Me: SILENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just realized I had been texting someone by the name of Mike Melton and not my friend. Thank God he wasn't available for breakfast!

If only I could have been texting Peyton!!!!
