A creeper story for Brigitte

Alright, a few weeks ago as I was on my way to class with my good friend Audrey, I got this random text, something like: Thanks for helping me out tomorrow, I really appreciate it. I decided to have some fun and replied with a casual: No problem. Remind me what it is I am helping with. Anyways, it became painfully obvious within a few messages that this person totally had the wrong number and I told him so. He went on about being embarrassed and getting total pride check because he was fake numbered.

Ha ha, right?

Well, I'm always in for a little fun and conversation with random strangers (see 2008 internet dating posts as proof) so I text him for a while longer. He called me later that night.

Okay, this dude was all of 19 years old. He was a "motivational speaker" though, I don't know what a 19 year old could say that would be motivating. After an e-mail with pictures, and 5 minutes on the phone I was sure he was a creeper. You know the look, right? He had this total attitude on the phone like he was hot stuff and it was very evident from his photo that he was not (did I mention his last name was Pigg?).

(apologies if no one but Audrey and Lisa found this story amusing. It may have been one you had to be there for.)

Okay, I found this story amusing... keep at it, one of these wrong numbers could be a good one:). I have to agree with you on the 19 year old being a motivational speaker... motivating to who?

I find this story amusing, you're brave to let it go on so long! Hope your bday was fabulous - mine was last Sun, we should celebrate together, maybe at an early morning step class or something :).

Ah hahahahah! Hilarious, what a freaking funny joke- 19, well at least he wasn't our dads age :)

I never heard the motivational speaker part... that makes the story even better. Oh Pigg. Getting faked numbered had to put him in his place, right?

OHMYHECK!!! LOL! That is SO funny Katie! I love it. You should have included one of his pictures! I'm so curious what he looks like... A 19yr kid with the last name PIGG?! Of course he is a motivational speaker!! He probably had to dig deep to motivate himself to live and figures he should share his secrets with other hopeless fools. At least he doesn't work at a hot dog cart! haha.

Geez.... what a great story. :D I'm glad you posted it.
