Oh, Smitty

This past winter, Ghost got a new phone number.  Shortly after, we started receiving very odd calls, very late at night, from an obviously inebriated woman.  She would ask for Smitty.  We don't know a Smitty.  So Ghost would tell her she had the wrong number, but she would continue on rambling about how she was Smitty's Grandma and deserved to talk to Smitty.  So Ghost would hang up.  She would call right back and get progressively more aggressive and rude and would start cussing at Ghost about keeping Smitty from her.  These phone calls went on, not every night, but maybe once a week or so for a few months.  It was always around 1 am too.

After a while, the phone calls stopped.  Until recently.  Smitty's grandma called again a few weeks ago and then a few days later, some man called asking for Smitty.  Ghost continues to tell these people that Smitty doesn't have this phone number.

This morning, Ghost had a missed call from a Phoenix, AZ number, so he called it back.  The woman said she knew she had the wrong number and that this was her ex husband's old phone number and she was trying to reach him.  After, I told Ghost he should call her back and ask if the ex husband's name is Smitty.  Then, perhaps the mystery of Smitty would be solved.  Or perhaps Smitty is the ex husband's son?  Who is Smitty?  And why does Smitty's drunk grandmother call us looking for him?  Why are you keeping Smitty from his grandmother?  Most importantly, why oh why, did you name someone Smitty?  I need answers!
