"Who's Suzie?"
My married woman Katrina had been acting queerly ever since I had returned house from my Native American cultural class, not to mention the weird phone call I received just before I left, full of little pauses instead of our usual fast-paced communication. Now that I was house she had been pretty more ignoring me completely, then comes this strange question. Katrina was calm but I could tell there was thing
under her skin as she shredded up the vegetables for the night's dinner.
"I don't cognize anyone named Suzie." I replied. "Well move to think of it, there's my old friend Peter's married woman Suzie."
My married woman remained calm, " Do you want to tell me anything?" she replied.
"There is nothing to tell Kat."
Katrina was heating up; her trademark rosy cheeks had evolved to boiling teapot. Still however, no steam or whistle had been emitted from her pretty spout.
She looked at me thoughtfully, "Well, I looked at your cell phone today. It seems you've been causing text messages to a woman named Suzie. I've see about thirty of her texts in the archive; they're all like "I love you heaps" and "Thinking of you right now". Who is she Tom?"
A strange feeling overcame me. Katrina seemed perfectly sure that I was guilty of something. Defendant yet innocent, her eyes spoke of the obvious evidence that was heaped against me. The thing is, we were actually having serious relationship problems at the time, with galore arguments and seldom
seeing eye-to-eye.
Katrina was on the brink of tears and I just didn't cognize what she was talking about. Looking down I could see the cell phone gripped tightly in her hands. Funny, I hadn't thought just about the fact that I own two phones and she was holding the one that I seldom
use. A few months back I bought it off eBay as it is extremely small and I don't want to have to carry my big big-ticket "computer" phone on me once
I am riding my mountain bike. It was actually my second 'extra' phone as my married woman had killed the 1st once
she had put it through the washing machine.
"Are you talking just about that phone Kat? Give me a look at it." She bimanual the phone over reluctantly, as if it were evidence in a murder trial. I looked at the messages and sure enough there were a whole bunch from person named Suzie. Several of the messages were quite raunchy indeed.
Straight away I started to search for the dates of the archived messages, as they would-be certainly prove my innocence. "Look Kat, the dates of these messages were some months ago. I've only had the phone for a couple months. They are evidently person else's."
Her look of disbelief was starting to rattle me. It is a actually atrocious feeling once
person you love so more doesn't have trust in you. I then searched and found the receipt from eBay for once
I bought the phone. After showing the date on the form to her I could tell she was starting to see that I was telling the truth, but the wall of disbelief still adorned over, clouds covering her bright face.
Finally I distinct to search for the guy who oversubscribed me the phone. If this didn't prove my case nothing would-be save me from everlastingly sleeping in the doghouse. Exploitation the email address he had used in the sale established bootless as my message unbroken
coming back
'Return to sender.' Let me tell you I was actually beginning to panic! Then, bang! The sound of the gun rang in my ears...just joking. It didn't get that serious! No, the bang was the sound of the flash of inspiration that suddenly entered my mind. I went back on the Computer network and eBay and searched for the guy's name. I found it with a some email address, as he must have changed his Computer network Service provider. A immense feeling of calmness rush over me like the 1st wave at the beach once
you have been in the heat all day.
Next I sent him a message asking him just about the archived messages to 'Suzie' and asked him to 'Carbon Copy' (Cc) his response to my wife's email address so she would-be see that it was authentic.
The man then replied with a message that aforesaid he was really embarrassed just about not deleting the messages on the cell phone. All right, pay dirt! He besides went on to say that his married woman was named Suzie and gave her address so Kat could then contact her if necessary. He seemed especially nervous just about the content of the messages and aforesaid that he hoped nothing too x-rated was there as he and his married woman often used risqué language to support their relationship's fire 'stoked up!
O.K. So there's my story. My main message to you from the whole experience is that if you are purchasing or merchandising a product on eBay, do sure you clear up any unwanted information. It can actually cause problems! Let me besides tell you that now I am back searching on eBay as my new phone has besides been sent on a mission back to the creator as it too has been on the 'Quest for the spin cycle'!
