I got a lot of hang ups this weekend. I suspect that they were political calls.
Why would those be hangups? I ask because I've been getting more than a few lately, and I'd love to believe they're about to stop.
I'm sorry. You were going to ask me to choose, right? Did you want to finish?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am the anti-Cashmere, in that my lack of land line, and therefore robocalls, makes me sad.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I got a lot of hang ups this weekend. I suspect that they were political calls. no auto calls though.
For a second, I was thinking something else when you mentioned "auto calls."
Hello - I'm the new Chevy Impala. Have you seen me lately? I totally have a more powerful engine than that Ford 500....

Aha. My hangups are when I answer, so not the same thing.
All you no-land-line people kinda scare me. I've never had my land line go out. I have lost power, cable, internet, and cell reception.
Now, there was no big reason for me to have to make phone calls during, say, the no-power moments. But I just liked knowing I could.
Okay, got to get ready. Have to go for a free massage. Life sometimes doesn't suck.

I'm so glad I gave up my land line. NO robocalls from any politician.
Oh hell yeah.

I fucking love Every Rose Has Its Thorn, even though I'm pretty sure the official title has "It's," which hurts me.
I... just couldn't write it that way. I can't even check my iPod, because I'm pretty sure I changed it during a grammatical hissy fit.

In completely random work news, our biggest client has a database DSN called "Xtreme Sample Database." And one called "Xtreme Sample Database 9."
I'm afraid to know what's in there....
