Today I got no less than four calls from spammers. I only answered the one from a local area code, foolishly thinking it might be something real.

I can’t tell if the calls are coming to my cell number or my Google Voice one. Doesn’t really matter, enough is enough. I downloaded an app to deal with it, and set it to block any “unknown” (i.e. blocked caller ID) numbers that aren’t already in my contact list.

Also, thanks to Ace Lightning for recommending the Pajama Jeans–I got myself a pair a few weeks ago, boy are they comfy. Didn’t even have to get them hemmed. As soon as the indigo ones are back in stock I’m going to get a pair of those, too.

My first impulse was to reply with, “Fuck the orphans,” but that would just confirm he’s got a live address.

I thought that last spam was as half-assed as they could get.

I was wrong.
