Took an early walk, out the door at 7:30. Back in plenty of time for the Event Coordinator meeting at 10:30. Afterward, I zipped down to FOPAL and spent two+ hours processing computer books.
Back in time for a short nap and then Rhonda’s open meeting at 4. The main topic was CH strategic planning, one possible strategic move will be to acquire a “satellite campus” of another building, or other buildings. Lots of discussion followed of course.
Weird phone call today. About 2:30 while arriving back from FOPAL, my pocket phone rang. Screen says, “No Caller ID”. Assuming it would be robocall or a scam, I answered just for fun. The voice at the other end was that of a person having a stroke, or similarly disabled. Struggling to say any words, just Uh, Erk, Wubba kinds of syllables. I said, you have the wrong number, but it sounds like you need help, call 911. And I disconnected. Phone rings again, same deal, no caller ID, incoherent noises. I said the same thing and disconnected. Phone rang a third time, same deal. This time he (pretty sure it was a masculine voice) might have said “Mary”. Wehwee. I said there is nobody here named Mary, you really need help, dial 911. No more calls. I wonder what kind of life event I was a bystander witness to. I’ll never know.
