It was from &#8211; I think &#8211; my former room-mate&#8217;s oldest son.    It was a kind of bland &#8220;haven&#8217;t talked to you in a while&#8221; kind of message &#8211; and that was about it.    No &#8220;purpose&#8221; &#8211; other than the obvious trying to re-establish communications.  There was no phone number left and since I canceled my caller ID &#8211; no way to tell the number.    And he called at 8:00 in the morning &#8211; on a Thursday &#8211; when I would be certain to be at work. <\/p>\n<p>So, to sum up:<\/p>\n<p>Random phone call, no apparent purpose, no return number, called when I couldn&#8217;t possibly be home.<\/p>\n<p>While I&#8217;d like to think this was a friend trying to get back in touch and doing a poor job of it &#8211; I&#8217;m a little uneasy.    Was he calling and didn&#8217;t think about me being at work until he was already leaving the message &#8211; or was he calling to make sure I wasn&#8217;t home?<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m going to stop my speculation at this point since I have no proof of anything either way. <\/p>\n<p>I guess that&#8217;s about it for now&#8230; looks like another busy day on the horizon.
