If you ever send me a text to my cell phone and think you are sending it to someone else, beware! For what I may do could haunt you on the Interwebs for all e-cyber-ternity.

I was repairing a light on my little Christmas tree when I got a text. I had to ignore it because my hands were occupied. A few minutes later I checked it to find this (included is the following transcription as well).

Him (5:38pm): Baby i promise its no one over here baby

Me (5:47pm): I think you have the wrong number for your text.

Him (5:48pm): Who is dis

Me (5:48pm): Who do you think it is?

Him (5:50pm): I dont know

Me (5:51pm): Well you sent me a text calling me baby and making promises. My FRIENDS call me Skull and I am nobody’s baby.

Him (5:56pm): Nett quit playn sh*t [corrected by me for Google's sake]

Me (5:56pm): Don’t curse at me, Boy! I don’t appreciate being talked to like that.

Him (5:56pm): Nett look quit playn

Me (5:560m): I told you my name is Skull.

Him (5:58pm): Well who eva u is quit textn me

Me (5:59pm): You started it tellin’ me you didn’t have nobody over there.

Him (6:00pm): Well dont text me nomnre

So I quit textn him nomnre. But thanks, Mr. Baby, I needed a blog post for today.

    So funny! Thanks for the laugh, Mr. Baby! Reminds me of messages I have received on my voice mail that are obviously not meant for me, but they just keep on leaving them…

    I used to get phone calls like this…at 3 am. Not fun.

    That there is hi-larious. I just know that when I finally break down and get a cell phone, me and texting will be like *this*.
    And now… I must go sleep.

    ginger – oh, don’t even get me started on the voice messages or the telemarketers; I could tell some serious stories there.

    mamalang – 3am?! No, not fun.

    falwyn – my favorite part of the whole text message is that he spelled out “dis.”

    Love it! I wonder if Baby gave him a wrong number on purpose?

    karen – that is exactly what my hubby and I thought and he told me to reply with, “You a lie.” But I didn’t. The funnier thing is that he called me about an hour earlier and realized he had the wrong number and hung up. So he texted me instead.

    LOL! Oh, my gosh, I love Text Messaging horror stories. There was one time when the keys to my cell phone somehow came unlocked while in my purse without me knowing it. I found out when I got a phone call from my cousin asking me why I had just sent him 42 text messages of the letter “A”.

    Triple M – What can I say? I was just . . . overcome.

    Gini – welcome. That’s funny. At least it was your cousin. Did he make you pay for them?
