Don’t call me

What happened to the “Do Not Call” law?

I swear the phone rings all day long. My answering machine does not have a mute button, so I have to listen to five rings before my husband’s voice announces we can’t come to the phone right now. Then our dog hears my husband’s voice and he starts howling.

This seems to have become a daily ritual. You can’t get away from them. You go out of your house and they call on your cell phone. I hope that solar business that insists on calling me day and night goes bust. Sorry, I’m starting to lose it.
