Thursday night is pizza night. Last night I decided to to get the pizza at Domino’s and the rigatoni and meatballs at Sardella’s.
I timed my drive and called Domino’s first on my car phone.
Me: “Call Domino’s”
Car: I have two numbers. Say one for John Acosta or two for Domino’s Pizza.
What? What does John, my landscaper, have to do with Domino’s Pizza? That was weird.
Of course, I chose option two and ordered my pizza. Now to order my rigatoni.
Me: “Call Sardella’s”
Car: Calling PetSmart
What? No!”
Me: “Call Sardella’s”
Car: Calling Charlene’s cellphone.
I was starting to laugh now. Well, laughing mixed with a little yelling. It didn’t even say Charlene’s last name. It was like it had some kind of thing going with Charlene.
Me: “Call Sardella’s” speaking very slow and clear
Car: Calling Laura Shiver’s office
Oh good grief. Laura doesn’t even have an office. Laughing is now replaced with frustration. Not only am I getting frustrated, I’m also getting close to Sardella’s and I haven’t even placed my order yet.
Not one to give up easily I decided to try one more time.
Me: “Call Sardella’s”
Car: Calling Karen Bohning’s cell
Seriously??!! How does that even remotely sound like Sardella’s?
I gave up. At the next stop light I picked up my cellphone and tapped Sardella’s. As if mocking me, my car picked it up.
Finally, I connected with Sardella’s and placed my order.
The moral of the story? Learn how to cook and make my pizza and rigatoni at home!
