conversations with a collector series…running scared
I scared off a collector today. I consider that no small feat. It wasn’t my collector, mind you. All my bills are paid at the moment, thank you very much. I am grateful for that…to be honest, I am not completely sure whose collector it was. I answered the phone, knowing it probably wasn’t anybody I wanted to talk to.
“Hello. I’m trying to get ahold of a relative of yours.” I was expecting to hear my stepdaughter’s name. “Lorriane Shillcutt?” I. don’t. think. so.
“That’s my husband’s ex-wife!” I snarled.
“Oh, ok, sorry. Bye.” She was off the phone in a flash. Evidently, the disgust in my voice was enough to scare her off, just like that.
I don’t know if they were really looking for the ex, or looking for her as a contact listed for the kid. Because there’s no way they should be calling here looking for her, for Holy Hell’s sakes.
Damn collectors.

when you click on Goddess Day on your little clicker for your birthday it takes you to a link for a bra on amazon…..i was just wondering if this was intentional?

that’s an amazon auto link. it uses the context to pick out what to link to. kind of ad. but hey, goddesses are sexy!
