My father's mother had a similar freakout the other day, apparently -- I guess she called when they were on their way to a (routine) doctor's appointment, and then they weren't home, and etc., etc. Of course she didn't call my father's cell phone, which he would have answered.

I guess what I'm saying is, I don't know that it ever goes away.

Also, Kat, that restaurant looks terrifying.

You can get your revenge in 40-50 years, msbelle.

I spent a non-trivial amount of time outside of my dad's apartment building this Saturday, alternating between ringing his apartment's comm bell, calling his phone, and wondering how long I should wait before calling 911. The apartment building nosey neighbor (self-described) and troubleshooter eventually got me in, where I found out that my dad had been napping in the back bedroom, where he couldn't hear the phone or comm bell.

He now has a shiny new phone in his bedroom.

I'm hoping it gets a bit easier.

news to noone - yikes men's all around.

I guess what I'm saying is, I don't know that it ever goes away.

My mom still feaks if I am not home when she calls.

I'm hoping it gets a bit easier.

I'm sure it does.

I've got about 5-6 automated calls today for Miguel Sanchez warning about possible fraud on his Visa card. What exactly do I have to do to make these calls stop?

Get a new number?

they do not leave a call back #?

I wonder if there is a general # for Visa?

How weird.
