A) The caller was looking for Dorothy
B) I am not Doroth
Flash back to a month ago:
When I got my phone I loved the number, 503-560-X60X* and I thought it was a GREAT NUMBER because it was so easy to remember. Then when trying to call from my cell to my desk phone---so I could find out what the number was after a few days because I had forgotten---I was greeted by a message saying I had to dial a 1, as in long distance. Being in telecom I immediately assumed the 503-560 was a new area code and not yet loaded in the Hugs and Kisses switch, which was very possible since H&K is slower than shit. Then I got suspicious. That area code and exchange seemed eerily familiar. So I did a LERG search (checked the "503-560" to see where it lived, in lay terms) and it confirmed my suspicions: this was a McMinville phone number. For those of you not familiar with the layout of Oregon, it goes Portland->Newberg->Beirut->Cancun->the Hanging Gardens of Babylon->McMinnville. So it was LONG DISTANCE to Portland and therefore long distance charges for my customers. I requested and was given a new number that wasn't nearly as exciting but wasn't long distance either.
Flash forward to today:
First phone call, person looking for Dorothy.
Quickly followed by second phone call, person looking for Dorothy.
Therefore we can deduce that:
A) Dorothy is popular.
B) I am not.
I think I want my old number back; at least I won't feel so rejected when it doesn't ring, rather than when this one rings and it's not for me.

Storm rocked last night on Super Nova. She left Tommy Lee (not Jones) speechless. You gotta love that, shutting that motherfucker up, she did. About time someone did. Anyway, no links available so go to
Oh, and officially: I am not a "fan" of reality shows, nor am I addicted to them in general or this one in particular. I am, on the other hand, a close personal friend of Storm's so back off, she's relying on me to help her through this exciting and stressful time in her life. And I'm not a reality-tard. Seriously. I can quit anytime I want……..but as long as Storm is on the show, I'm watching.
*******************************
And finally, to you lovelies who read and commented on my short story yesterday, thank you for the love, affection and support but most of all the attention. Thank you for the comments and e-mails but especially the praise. It really means a lot to me, it really, really does. But I just want to say you all are sick fuckers, she doesn't kill him with the knives or performs any Loraine Bobbitt procedure, she merely gets a little passive/aggressive revenge by charging more money to the hubby's credit card. Or............maybe she does cut off his dinker, you never really know, do you? That's the fun of it and the purpose fo the story!
*******************************
And finally, it's going to be over 100 degrees this weekend here in Portland. Now I'm sure Shawna is poo-pooing that but it's not commong here and our homes don't have central A/C for the most part, so it's a pretty big deal.
******************************
Take care! Watch Rockstar SuperNova tonight, but only long enough to make sure Storm isn't in the bottom 3----although I think she's Tommy Lee (not Jones's) bottom pick. Snicker snicker.
* not giving any of you ammo for prank calls.

"I've got six letters for you.
g-o-o-g-l-e"
I surfed through that show again last night. Storm was not on at the moement.
Every time I see someone singing I think "Who the fk told them the could sing? How did they get this far in their lives without someone taking them aside and telling them how bad they were...really, as a friend."
I don't think you know storm. I think you are covering up for a serious addiction.
Seek help.
iamnot, check out the clip I told you to check into.
And she is my friend, I swear.
Ok, so maybe I have seen her a dozen times in the last year, that makes us intimate. Kinda.
