Nah....it happens! I was horrified once when I accidentally pocket dialed my aunt during a particularly chaotic moment in daycare. Fortunately, I was in the clear....in fact, she was impressed that I didn't lose the plot considering what she heard going on in the background. Ahhhh, if only she'd been privy to our 'ceremony' to say goodbye to our cat Bootsie. It was dreadful and I handled it exactly wrong. One little girl started to cry, so another boy said "It's not so bad, imagine if it was your MOM!". Hysterics, then I barked at him (totally wrong thing to do), then he started to wail, then the others just pitched in so as not to be left out. My attempts to quell their sorrow with a lesson in Buddhism only made it worse. Yup....awful and I had to fess up to the parents about the whole mourning mess. Fortunately, they thought it was funny, but if anyone had been pocket dialed in that moment, I hate to think what would be going through their minds.
