TeleStupiders

I never sleep in, and by never I mean hardly ever.  Out of 365 days a year I can honestly say I sleep in maybe 3 days a year.  This 'creature of habit' is consistently up at 6:30am each and every morning.

The last few nights I've had a bit of insomnia.  Up until 3:30am.....but then still starting my day at 6:30am.  It was starting to catch up with me.

This morning I wake up to a phone call.  The first thing that went through my head is "why is someone calling at 6:30 in the morning?"  then the next thing is "The kids are all out, what happened!".  But instead, I get George and George  is talking and shouting and very excited.  Seems he has a GREAT deal for me!

"What?" I say.  "Who is this?" I mumble.

"My name is George and have a I got a deal for you!" he says with just a bit too much enthusiasm.

"You've probably only heard that on television, but I'm here to tell you.......!" he continues on.

I look at the clock in disbelief and see it's 10:00am.  I was finally able to start catching up on all the sleep I had been missing with the insomnia and George is going on about a GREAT deal he has for me.

"DON'T CALL THIS NUMBER AGAIN GEORGE OR I'LL REACH THROUGH THE PHONE AND GRAB YOUR TONSILS OUT!"  I scream at him, then slam the phone down.

There was a time telemarketers would call at supper time.  I'm prepared to be rude at them at supper time.  How am I going to adjust to being rude to them in the morning......on a weekend.....I suspect quite easily.
