One More Day!


You may have heard that tomorrow is Election Day.

Which means there are twenty-four more hours for political phone calls to make a difference. And since Chris and I are currently registered with different parties, and we still have an old-fashioned landline, we get ALL the calls. Yay, us!

I have taken to answering the phone with a cheerful tune: "Would you like to build a snowman?" (they never do) or a long pause followed by a low, breathy whisper: "Whaaaat?" This usually causes the caller to hang up. Other times we just let it go to voice mail.

The real fun begins when our voice mail service sends me a helpful transcript of the recorded message. I will share a few below for your enjoyment. Good times!

(787) 108-7710 emerging you over public on Tuesday the politicians deserve your vote maybe not that you deserve to see barack obama chris when we were able to work together and depressed like every read packing want to see obama here's enjoying. The doctor Milton Wilsonville republican on Tuesday.

Of course, since we voted by mail, none of these calls makes a whit of difference either way.

  1. Irish? Crazy country bar? Rocco's mama's best friend? Love it.

    That fruit tray looks delicious, by the way.

  2. This is hilarious. I share your loathing of all ads political. This election cannot be over soon enough.

    I think I may have to practice some of those responses. Maybe "let it go" would be more to my liking. In a falsetto. ;)
