Well my story isn't all that strange,  but it sure was comical at the time.

I was staying in a motel in Delaware with a puppy,  and had not checked as
to whether they allowed dogs or not.  (I had learned long ago that "don't
ask, don't tell"  could save a traveler from being on the road forever with
no place to stay).

Annnyhow,  my husband called and while we were chatting the puppy
(unbeknownst to me),  was happily chewing on the phone cord.  It wasn't very
long before I knew it though, as we were completely cut off.   I didn't know
what to do - I knew my husband would be trying to call back and would get
frightened if the phone just rang and rang.   I didn't want to admit to the
front desk what had happened,  so I started peeling the plastic stuff off
the wires - with my teeth - (hey I was in a hurry),  thinking that I could
twist the wires back together and get connected.   Meanwhile my husband is
calling and every time the phone rings,  I get a shock,  at just about the
time my hair was standing up on end,  the door opened - the manager had
become concerned and came down to check on me - there stood I - with a puppy
bounding around my feet - and the phone cord in my mouth.  That is probably
the most busted I have every been in my life.  (Well, except for the time in
high school when my parents got home early from their regular Friday nite
bowling league,  and my regular Friday nite party was in full swing,  but
that's another story).

Needless to say,  from then on in,  any puppies in the room were crated
while I was on the phone.
