Telemarketer. Whee. Fortunately her timing was good (by my standards): She called just after I finished eating.
After identifying me - by my full name - she says, "I see from our records that you've ordered Sesame Street Ornaments for your children in the past...."
I'm on their do-not-call list, now. No, no I haven't. First, that sounds horribly tacky and stupid. Secondly, I neither have nor want children. Thirdly, I have had this number for four years, this address for the same, and the last person to live at this address had a name not at all like ours. I was still getting their occasional junk mail a year ago, so I ought to know.
Really, people. Pick a less moronic lie, please. And put me on your do not call list.
