365.. a year of daily tasking

day 69... " make a non obscene phonecall today"

Simple enough i thought, i should hope the majority of my phonecalls are none obscene. Maybe i could just call a mate, have the kind of chat we'd usually have revolving around footie, scran and what time we plan on meeting down the southie?.

Was that really all that was required of me? phone someone and avoid being offensive during said call? It seemed a tad easy.. However when i read further i saw that i was required to " call a stranger at random and whisper nice things about them down the line"

That sounded more like it, or at least more pervy and potentialy arrestable.. i know how the book loves to make me do unacceptable things, so at about 4 in the afternoon i picked a number at random with nothing in mind " nice thing" wise, I thought id just shoot the sauce and see what came naturally.

i dialed... being sure to enter the untacable number code first... and the phone rang and rang... noone picked up, so i picked another number and again it rang and again no pick up ... but this time there was an answering machine .. the book stipulated that should noone answer the correct thing to do was to leave them a message.. so i did.

It went something like this...

hi it's me
your really lovely.. you really suit red, wear it more often.
Your garden looks amazing this time of year,... well done with that.
better go.. speak to you soon (kiss sound)
bye.

NON obscene phone call made..
