I'm Being Stalked

Today at work, I've had three missed calls, but the party who is calling is not leaving a message.  Due to our fancy new phone system, I can actually see all of the calls that have come in and gone out.  All of the calls I've missed have been from one number.

202-456-1212

Anyone know whose number that is?

Go ahead and dial it...go on, I'll wait.







Yup, can you believe it?  It's the WHITE HOUSE!  THE White House!  As in the home of the Obamas. 

I called the number back and got a voice mail recording that said, "Hello, this is the White House.  To leave a message for the President, please press 1....."  I mean you all know I'm a supporter of his right?  And yes, I know life in the U.S. ain't perfect, but seriously, what man or woman in that role could actually make it perfect?

But it is kind of freakin' me out that they keep calling and not leaving a message.  With this whole Russian spy ring thing right in my neighborhood and all.  But more than likely, they're calling to see if I got my T-shirt and if I'm still supporting Healthcare and Finance Reform, and all those other socialist Democratic agenda items.

And actually, all I can think of is that scene from American President when "Sydney" thinks the President calling is a crank call and hangs up and then is told "Sydney, do me a favor, hang up the phone and dial...."  and that's the number on my call log.

I'm important like that and all.  You know it.
