    If it's who I live with or close friends/family  ... I would ask where at the moment are they..inferring the name of the road  or landmark they are near......... 
    If it was a stranger and being a blonde klutz  ....I'd most likely ask the same ...:)D

    I loved that no one so far has said "Where are you at?"  That is one of the things that drive me up the wall.

    Since you know it's incorrect and makes you sound ignorant, maybe you'll leave the 'at' off.  Never end a sentence with a preposition.
