3 phones

About 4:00 AM I heard a beeping in my apartment. Thought my apartment was on fire or I was being abducted by aliens. 
Quick question, if you had an opportunity to go on a spaceship, tool around about would you. I would be concerned about motion sickness but would do it.
I was happily not on fire but no aliens, it turned out my home phone was paging itself and I needed to remove the battery. 
Now you are thinking that how can I, someone that is on the leading edge of technology have a home phone? Next thing I would tell you is that I have stacks of yellow pages for all cities I do business in. 
The reason I have a home phone is that I work from home and its easier to conduct business on a land line with a headset.
So the day starts with a broken phone. Any calls need to be made on my cell phone and I needed to put them on speaker phone so I could type (I have never gotten into the blue tooth thing as I do not like Lobot) 
I make my way to Costco and I get the second phone. I get it home and discover no jack for a headset. Bummer!! 
So I go back to Costco and return it. I was expecting a miserable time, but it was not too bad.... 
Then I went to Target that I somehow found near where I lived, (this is a joke) and the people near the phones were neither rocket scientist or brain surgeons when asked about the presence of a jack. Luckily I was able to open the box and see they had a jack. 
Got the phone and it was all good. 
You are wondering, how is this the greatest blog? Aliens? No new information but simply, yeah I would go on the space ship but I may get sick? You are probably thinking of your own mortality and vowed to make every moment count and then you read this pointless story about land lines and alien abductions.
