gigglechick saves the day

so my friend cathy is in midtown - no exact location, folks, sorry - she just called me asking me to call her friend's husband on long island because they haven't been able to get thru to him for 24 hours...

they've tried calling him - to no avail... something about the NYC phones that're screwy...

cathy's phone won't ring - she's gotten numerous voicemails from the friend's hubby though

so, what happens? i had to call up a complete stranger - fine no prob... thinking i could do it via my landline while cath is on the cell i call - nope.

won't go thru

i try again... nope. nada - recording says it won't go thru

cath and i hang up...

i give one last ditch effort...

HE ANSWERS!! oh joy!

"eh, hello there! this is erin, a friend of cathy blahbittyblah's - *wife's name* is holed up at her apartment - all is fine - she is fine - they just can't call you because of the phones being weird - they were able to call me because i live in jersey city - but they want you to try emailing them - they have electricity - but there's no way home to long island since the LIRR is out still"

he proceeds to tell me that he has the police there because he hadn't heard from her at all...

(awwwwww... that's so sweet!)

so contact has been made... emails will be sent... and a family has been brought back together....

my work here is done... i have to go hop in my invisible plane and head to the shore now...

*whoosh!*
