My Little Prank Caller

I remember when I was young, probably around 5 years old, and my sister, Chloe
got into trouble for dialing 9-1-1 and hanging up.  Now, my
parents don’t even know if it was in fact Chloe who did it, to this
day, I mean, it very well could have been me or my brother.  I
used to think, oh, no, we were too young, it must have been her, but I
recently changed my mind.

The other evening I got a call from a 9-1-1 operator saying they had
recieved a hang-up-call from our number.  I was thoroughly
confused, since only Lindsay and I were home, but then realized that
when I had gone into the kitchen to fix Lindsay a little something to
eat, she had innocently stayed behind, playing with her toys in the
computer room.  Or so I thought. 

Apparently, she had pulled the phone off of the desk and proceeded to
somehow call the police.  I’ve been told that if you press a bunch
of random numbers in succession that it’ll signal a distress and dial
9-1-1 for you.  Don’t know if that’s true or not, but that’s all I
can come up with, because I can’t imagine her actually being lucky
enough to have dialed those three numbers in a row, ya know? 
Anyway, no more playing with the phone or they might not come to our
aid if, God forbid, something ever did happen!

    Oh Heather that is too funny! I know I have done something similar with my cell phone in my purse before they made phones with keypad lock. Oh the things you have to prepare for! ;)
