phone calls and such

i do not usually get unsolicited phone calls, in fact, the phone seldom rings any given day, but rarely is there a sales call because i am on the national do not call list and is seems to work... but this past week the phone has blown up with calls from family, friends, and unknowns... i think i shared the family calls in a previous entry and friends have been calling more often about eating out at buffets (did i wish for a buttet friend?... really?... i am beginning to feel quite bloated and think i am overdoing the buffets... curly and his family called yesterday and we went to the big buffet that is not as clean as some of the others but has a bigger selection, especially of sushi... and helena wants to buffet tomorrow and the body is saying, really?... no, seriously, where's the pause button on this eating gig i suddenly got (that doesn't pay, at that)... ah, but i complain without any sincerity because i love to eat, especially at buffets, and i have not been enjoying that for a while cuz i have not had buffet partners... so moderation, right?... and cost-effectiveness too, after all, i am on a zero income budget and should not be spending any money at all (shhhh, who said that?)...

meanwhile, the unknown calls that rarely come have popped up this week... three of them in the past two days... of course i filed another meaningless complaint... hopefully the government will send cruise missiles and drones (cuz that is what they are good at, after all... sarcarstic much?) to take out the call center and quiet my phone... maybe a little later i will call the numbers with my own unknown phone (i block the number on my other line) and harrass them with rules and regulations and legal threats and technical talk about fees and fines for violating the do not call list...

yeah, cuz i can do that when i am bored, ya hear? lol :)
