I had an interesting phone call this morning. Around 10 am my cell phone rang... I looked at the caller I.D. and it said that "dad's cell" was calling. I had been under the impression that my mom had kept my dad cell phone and number. I was ready to be very upset for calling me from that number cuz my heart sunk when I saw who was (or who I wish) was calling. When I picked up the phone, I said hello and it wasn't a very nice hello either.

A man on the other end of the phone said... hi, someone keeps trying to get ahold of someone at this number and it's not me. I wondered if you would know why.

The guy was thoughtful when I told him that my dad had passed away this last April and it was probably a buisiness contact who hadn't heard that he had passed. He was so kind and said that he was sorry and I could call my dad's cell phone anytime I wanted and he would make something up.

i wonder if you had that moment of "could that actually be him?" even if only for a millisecond.
