Philosophy Slam Still philosophizing after all these years.



Saturday, June 07, 2003
 

I am going to pitch my phone out the window. All telemarketers and wrong numbers are henceforth invited to stick it where the sun doesn't shine.

Today's wrong number:

If this is another telemarketer so help me . . .
Me: Hello?
Unidentified Dude: Hey girl, how are you?
Who the heck is this?
Me: Uh, fine.
UD: Where your man at?
Probably hiding under a rock in some godforsaken swamp.
Me: I think you have the wrong number.
UD: Don't you got no man?
No, I don't, and thanks so much for reminding me!
Me I think you have the wrong number.
UD: Look, I just seen your man leavin' by the back door.
You're a spying freak, and I'll probably be seeing you on Jerry Springer shortly.
Me: I really think that you have the wrong number.
UD: Isn't this [address]?
Praise all that's holy, no.
Me: No, it's not.
UD: Oh, sorry then!
*end conversation*

That was surreal. Obviously, though, these people lead more exciting lives than I. Excitement, intrigue, romance!

In the meantime, I write papers, crochet, and watch Trading Spaces. When things get really wild 'n' wacky, I Swiffer. And I don't have a back door, unless someone wants to scale down the balcony.

Maybe I should have written that address down. Might improve my social life.
