stop calling me

I just want to listen to music, damnit.

Someone from the "Friends of the SF Symphony" called me on my cell phone yesterday, while I was at work. The conversation went something like this.

her:	I'm calling from the Friends of the SF Symphony. Do you have a minute?
me:	No, I'm at work.
her:	Is this a cell phone? Let me make a note...when can I call you back?
me:	What's this about?
her:	I thought you wanted to get off the phone.
me:	Can't you tell me in one sentence what this is about?
her:	What about between 5pm and 9pm?
me:	Exactly what are you calling about?
her:	How about Saturday?
me:	I'd like to know what you're calling about. Is this about tickets?
her:	No, I'm calling from the Friends of the SF Symphony, we help keep music in schools.
me:	I'm not interested, please take me off of your list.

The caller hung up all huffy. I think I must have gotten on her list because I bought some tickets to the symphony last year. I hate that this happens. Is there no way that I can buy symphony tickets and not have to deal with this kind of crap?

On a somewhat related note, someone named Gina Papan keeps sending junk mail to my house. I think she's running for some kind of office. If I ever see her name on a ballot I'm going to vote against her just because of all the trees she's killed. I wish there was a box on the voter registration form for "decline to state party affiliation and don't send me junk mail, either".
