First Impressions

I have classes four days a week and to save myself some money, I use the landline for the conference calls instead of my cell phone.  I let G know when my classes are so that she knows when I'm busy and using the phone, but I knew it was only a matter of time before she interrupted a class.

At the beginning of the very first class meeting tonight she was on the other handset:

"Hello?"

"Yes, hello, welcome to class."

"Hello?"

"Yes, we can hear you."

"Can I get the zip code to Cedar City?"

"Who do you think this is?  We are in Los Angeles."

"Oh my, Los Angeles?  This isn't the directory?"

"No, where are you from?"

"Sacramento.  Ok, goodbye."

I was hoping to get away with them not knowing it was my line that did it, but she's from Sacramento, I'm in Sacramento.  Ugh.  Embarrassing first impression.
