All I can say is Grrrr! too many ways to communicate and miscommunicate these days.
Here's the situation...
An acquaintance in the condo where I live is about to move away soon. I am friends with her on Facebook (FB) but don't have phone number and don't know her well enough to call (via Facebook).
On the last FB message, she said that before she leaves, she and her husband will try to stop by and say goodbye before leaving but if we miss, then good bye now and was nice having you as a neighbor.
So, I was thinking, might be nice to get a bit of a heads up so in a FB message said, feel free to call me at my cell # before stopping by.
Then I realized today, I had a typo and gave a wrong number. So, I sent a FB message saying I gave the wrong number and gave the right one.
Usually, fine and dandy, the the person gets a FB notification of an instant message and checks it. But my neighbor isn't one to use FB often. I'd expect she won't even pick up my FB message until she's moved away.
So now, I'm thinking, if you had plans to stop by before moving, but end up first calling and get a wrong number, what would you do?
Thus, here is the waiting game ...
