Apparently, it rang a lot while we were gone, if the flashing number on the monitor is any indication.<\/p>\n<p>But the phone calls haven\u2019t been from friends saying they missed us.<br \/>\nOr from enemies who called to ask when we\u2019re leaving again.<br \/>\nNo, the majority of the phone calls can be categorized into one of two groups:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>They are either from solicitous Southwest Airlines customer service reps reporting on the status of our lost luggage.<\/li>\n<li>Or they are calls associated with the 2012 presidential election which our fair state kicks off with the Iowa caucuses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Since our bags arrived this morning, and the Iowa Caucus isn\u2019t until January, I\u2019ve further divided today\u2019s calls into three irritating categories:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Robo calls from candidates. Don\u2019t ask what the candidates say in these calls, because once it\u2019s clear the call is taped, I hang up. I wouldn\u2019t hang up if the candidate made a personal call, and we shared an equal sacrifice of time. But until that happens, I\u2019ll keep hanging up.<\/li>\n<li>Robo survey calls from various political campaigns. Don\u2019t ask what the survey questions are, because I realize it\u2019s an automated survey, I hang up. Again, it\u2019s an equal sacrifice of time thing.<\/li>\n<li>Survey calls from real people. Once, I agreed to do one of those surveys. But about ten questions in, I opted out. Why? Because the questions were peppered with emotionally loaded words, chosen to skew the results in favor of one party or another, one candidate or another. The survey\u2019s sponsors weren\u2019t interested in obtaining voter opinions. They were only interested in manipulating them. So now, I say no to those surveys, too.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With January more than five months away, the hang-up-to-chat ratio will be as skewed as a political poll. In fact, I may just turn off the ringer until the caucuses are over. So if you\u2019re a friend who wants to welcome me home or an enemy who would like to wave good-bye again, send an email, a tweet, or catch me on Facebook.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll get back to you. I promise.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ever since we got home from vacation, the phone has been ringing off the hook.
