LOLOLOL! And then when your Mom got home, she was ticked off talking about how she had been calling all day and somebody was on the phone so she kept getting a busy signal!!! Ha! That was hilarious in my household - of course we never laughed when she was complaining.
ETA: Of course, your Mom could call the operator and have her "cut in" on a call and then she would amazingly appear on the line with you and whoever you were talking to. Yes, it happened to me before. LOL. Those were some crazy times.

You had to pick it up and take your chances!
