What's up with telemarketers in Vancouver? I donated once, 2 years ago, and now it seems like every charity and sales company in British Columbia is calling to beg for money. I understand that many social programs and charities are for a good cause and are there to help people but I get a call a DAY asking for cash or trying to sell me somethin'. Rediculous. It's counter-productive since I'm more annoyed than inspired by the meriad of operators droaning on, reading off their monitors with their monotone and long-winded speeches. At least have some heart when you talk, eh? They ask for a huge sum at first and then try to bargain down to 20 bucks through pity. Like, wtf. Hey, telebegger, leave me alone. Call me when you care and maybe I will.

In other news, my lava lamp died. The gel in the jar just sits there like a half-deflated balloon. I am sad.
