Weirdness.
I got a voicemail last night, saying "Hi Shari, this is ***********. My 22nd birthday was yesterday and I am throwing a shindig at The Gin Mill this Thursday night. If you could make it that would be great,I'd love to see you."
Now this sounds all fine and dandy, right? I was invited to a birthday party! Fun! But here is the catch - I have abo-freakin-lutely no idea who this guy is. The name doesn't ring any sort of bell. No church bells, no hotel-conceirge-desk bells, nothing!
It is a 917 number, so it is an NYC cell phone number. But it is a cell, which means that I can't do reverse-look-up. I tried facebook, and couldn't find him. Basically I spent between an hour and an hour-and-a-half last night stalking him, to no avail.
So what do I do? What is the proper protocall when you get invited to a birthday party for someone you never met? What would Emily Post say?
*********** = name has been left out to protect the innocent.
EDIT: Nevermind... it was some guy that I met at a party last week that took a bunch of numbers from people. Obviously he made a huge impression.
