Butt Dialing?

Ok so we've all done it right? OOoops... calling someone without meaning to call? Sorry!!

Apparently with my Blackberry - I've been doing it some lately. If I call you or have called you and wasn't "there" I am so sorry!! I think I may have even called overseas once! Ok not really - but man - it's amazing how easy it is to dial on this phone.

OK so I was on my way home from a good morning out and about... I was really thinking about my sister-in-law and thinking I should call her to give her some much needed support. But my mind was going a million miles a minute and I had a tons of things to finish up before I had to get the girls from the bus stop. So the idea came and went.

Once home, I was trying to get all my errand packages inside - hung on my arms, phone in my hand, purse over my arm, keys barely grasped to open the door... talkng to Kiki was the furthest from my mind. I heard a noise... looked down and apparently had "BAG-dialed" Kiki... How did that happen? I didn't dial her number... I hadn't dialed her number since she was visiting in January. Why this phone number? Why now?

I almost hung-up. I wasn't prepared to be supportive. I didn't know what to say. How can I be there for her. Then a peace came over me... "Tell her how you feel...".

I let the phone continue to ring... Kiki answered. We talked. We cried. I felt close to her. She felt a huge bond with me. I felt that I supported her and she in turn supported me. It was exactly what she needed - she told me.

Amazing that it happened the way it had. Or do things happen for a reason?

Butt Dialing... who knew how much it could help out in a very hard situation.
