There was a message on my answering machine yesterday when I got home. It was from – I think – my former room-mate’s oldest son. It was a kind of bland “haven’t talked to you in a while” kind of message – and that was about it. No “purpose” – other than the obvious trying to re-establish communications. There was no phone number left and since I canceled my caller ID – no way to tell the number. And he called at 8:00 in the morning – on a Thursday – when I would be certain to be at work.

So, to sum up:

Random phone call, no apparent purpose, no return number, called when I couldn’t possibly be home.

While I’d like to think this was a friend trying to get back in touch and doing a poor job of it – I’m a little uneasy. Was he calling and didn’t think about me being at work until he was already leaving the message – or was he calling to make sure I wasn’t home?

I’m going to stop my speculation at this point since I have no proof of anything either way.

I guess that’s about it for now… looks like another busy day on the horizon. Back to work…
