the prankster

Aj, a complete prankster messaged me on orkut stating that he would be in Chicago in a couple of days. A slight gush of excitement sinked in within me. I do not get high-school friends visit me that often. Actually, I never get visits from them at all.

So here I am kinda expecting him to call me so we could meet up and all. But no, I do not get any calls and have like absolutely no trace of him at all. I message him back on orkut asking him on where the hec he was. At this point I have a slight feeling that this guy is messing around. But I had my reasons to believe otherwise. So, I get on orkut and get random scraps from him telling me where he was, where it would be convenient to meet and all that stuff. But, I do not get a bloody call from him. So my doubts widen and then I figure that he had a home phone number that I could call on orkut. The perfect way to kinda figure if this guy was really bullshitting. I call the number once. No one picks up. I wait ten minutes, and call the number for the second time. This time somebody actually picks up. I ask for AJ, and I get a reponse that kinda sounded like I called the wrong number. I check the number at this point and yeah!!! I did dial the right number.

So I ask again if Aj was there, and then the guys was like "you reached the mental hospital" I could not stop cracking up at myself. I actually wasted TWO whole ISD calls in calling a mental hospital to figure where this guy was. Its not even april first and i am busted already. What can i say.. AJ!! your the man.
