I just got a phone call . . .
My phone rang just as I was walking by. I looked at the number first to see if I recognized it. I did. It was my own phone number. I was receiving a call from myself . . . (cue Twilight Zone music)

I once got an email two months after a friend died. The widow wanted to see it but I immediately deleted it.

But did you answer it? ? and if you did what would you have to say to yourself?
So many questions so little time.

This is true. Probably a good thing no one was there when I answered.
But that brings up another question. If I call myself and then hang up right when I answer, what does that mean?
@Meili Iiiiii ugh ummm ? might have to try that myself to see
you still have a landline?

What's a landline?
Oh, I remember. Those phones that were connected to the wall....
I occasionally get calls from random people asking me "why did you call me?" So these conmen can, and do, spoof your name and number when they call other people too.

Interesting. I had a call show up from someone I had met once and put their number in my contacts list but then we never really got together. A couple years later they showed up as the caller but it was some "special offer" instead. I've never figured that one out.
Oooooh did you answer? Maybe future you had the lottery numbers
