Conversation with the BlueTooth Lady

It is now illegal to talk on a cell phone while driving the roads of Nova Scotia, Canada. I must hypocritically admit I agree with this new law. But I get in the car and go through my list of those I need - and I do mean NEED - to call right then. Of course the list is short - I have a "Fave Five" list with Telus and one of those five is my work number. If that doesn't spell out L-O-S-E-R, what does?

Anyway, I got a BlueTooth headset last night - don't worry, Mom, I leave it in the car when I get out. This is the conversation I had with the nice BlueTooth Lady (automated voice) today.

Pick up
BlueTooth Lady: Please state your command.
Me: Call 423.7727
BTL: Did you say "Call 425.7727"?
Me: No
BTL: Did you say "Call 257.7274"?
Me: No
BTL: Did you say "Call 772.7425"?
Me: No
BTL: Did you say "Call 485.2960"?
Me: NO
BTL: Did you say "Call 782.5902"? (apparently the numbers were becoming more random)
At this point, I figured she was fucking with me so I hung up on her.

Pick up
BlueTooth Lady: Please state your command
Me: Call Shulilah
BTL: Did you say "Call suhaulaloo"?
Me: No
BTL: Did you say "Call saabuleesa"?
Me: Yes (just to see who she may call)
BTL: Dialing...
(Shockingly) Shulilah: Hello?

Hey, BlueTooth Lady just may become my new best friend - especially since I don't have to give her a spot on my Fave Five list to talk to her on a regular basis.

PS. Guess what??? "Next week"... again.
