The New Year´s Ghost?

At 10:00 o´clock in the morning on the first day of 2013 my home phone rang. I was too slow and did not answer in time. I checked on the website who phoned as I did not recognise the phone number. It was a former colleague. I thought that was strange...but well I got to phone him up. I rang the number and he answered. I wished him Happy New Year of 2013. I said you phoned me was it something you wanted to reach me about? He said no I did not phone you. Well it is your number I checked that. He said the celullar phone is loading in the electrical socket and I have not used it this morning as I am in bed with a terrible hangover. Was there something you wanted to tell me he said jokingly. I laughed and said ditto. 

Could this REALLY happen? 

Well who knows, a couple of days ago my phone started to send out SMS on its own. These were SMS which got stuck and were never sent about 1,5 month ago and then suddenly my phone decides it is time to send them. I had several questions from my friends about my strange out of the blue SMS. Just some examples "Let the cat out". "My cat is Indoor" "My cat is outdoor".
Spooky isn´t it?
