Pace, not having had a nap today, was a bit restless so we gave him my iPhone to keep him occupied. (He sorta knows how to use it - he can swipe to get to different pages, click to open programs and knows which icons represent his favourites - a drawing program, a car racing game and a golf game - mainly for the animated sequence at the start of it.)
A few minutes later, Shea looks over and goes "Why does this say 'Click here to return to call'?"
Turns out Pace had somehow managed to click on the phone icon and dial one of the numbers in my Contact List - namely the switchboard at Regina Public Library! So for two or three minutes, a co-worker got to hear our pre-dinner conversation as we encouraged Pace in his car playing game, talked about my upcoming doctor's appointment and who knows what else!
I called back as soon as I realised what had happened and had a good laugh with the co-worker. She said she heard us clear as day and would occasionally yell "Hang up, Jason" but of course I didn't hear her, not having the phone up to my ear.
The funniest part of the whole story was the message the co-worker left on my answering machine at my home number (she didn't realise we were in a restaurant) saying she could hear me playing cars with my son and suggesting that I turn off my phone!
