Default Vegas Report OR Just when you think they don\'t know...

Well, this isn't really a report of me going to this casino and playing that game. I did all that, but I wouldn't guess anyone would care.
This is more about 2 weeks later (today).
But first, neccesary background info: I'm 20. My parents don't mind too much that I play poker, but I really didn't think they would approve of me going to Vegas underage, especially during the summer "when I should have a job."
Well, I went, didn't tell them, came back, got on with my life.

Until tonight...
A couple of hours ago, I was sitting with my girlfriend at Subway, eating my Foot Long Italian BMT, when I get a call from my mother. This isn't anything to worry about, since she calls everyone once in a while for some harmless reason.
Here is our conversation:
"Hi, mom"
"Hi Mike. Your cell phone bill is $400 for last month."
"..." <me thinking: damn, did I go over in minutes? I did use my phone a lot in Vegas, but I've never even come close to using all my minutes.>
"It says you were roaming in Las Vegas"
"..."
"Did you go to Las Vegas?"
"No. How could I? I'm not 21 yet."
"I don't know."
"So, maybe this was identity theft or something?"
"I don't know"
"OK. I'll call cingular tommorow and tell them you didn't make these calls."
"OK. Bye"

Wow. I'm screwed.
Anyways, I soon realized the jig was up, so I call my mother back, told her the truth, and told her that I'd pay the roaming charges.
