Hey Honey, Look Who It Is! Your Butt is Calling!

Have you seen this commerical?

Seriously, these phones are terrible about doing this. My husband has one. My husband is traveling to Afghanistan. The phone rings this morning at 10am. It's his cell phone number. My heart stops! I wasn't expecting a call today. Guess what? It's a butt call! Yup! Bill's butt called from Kuwait. Ian is confused because I am yelling in the phone hoping that he'll hear me. I am not sure why I thought I would be able to be heard from a cell phone in a pocket over the din of an airport and obviously, No dice! And at $2.49 cents per minute in Kuwait and $3.99 per minute in Afghanistan, I think I'll be investing in that Blackberry Flip phone.

I did call him back. He didn't answer, but he called a few minutes later. He had no idea that his butt had called. He didn't know the rates and at the time I hadn't looked them up, but he has been warned to stop "butt dialing." Butt dialing is not to be confused with "booty call!" Totally different! But he's not allowed to do that either!

  1. Too funny! I get butt calls all the time from a friend. I always get to hear some kind of interaction between her and her little ones. Luckily there is no charges really!
