I only owe you five dollars...

I stand corrected. My first phone call since getting a "real" phone line was from my smart-ass friend, who was responding to the mass email I sent out today saying "sorry for all the times my crappy cell phone cut us off mid-conversation, here's my new number that actually works." The message I got from my smart-ass friend was along the lines of "hel..o? are...oo there? ...can't...ar you..." along with some SOFAKEEVENPEEWEEHERMANWOULDBEASHAMED static noise between every syllable.

(I must admit, that was pretty clever. Made me laugh, anyway.)

However, the second call I got was from a telemarketer... And so it begins.
