New Years Day here in Des Moines was freeeezing. When I walked outside it was about two degrees...without the wind chill. After a thrilling night out on the town, it was time to get back to the phone bank.
Usually I spend my New Years Days watching football, so with my computer covered in different ESPN Gamecasts and a cell phone ready to make calls I prepared myself for the day ahead. Basically, all I did today was make calls, so I will give you a couple of interesting responses I got from people:
Vivek: "How are you doing today, sir?"
Caller 1: [very strong accent] "Watchin' football like you should be!"
Vivek: "My name is Vivek and I'm calling on behalf of Senator --"
Caller 2: "It's a DAMN holiday! Stop Calling"
While leaving a voicemail:
Caller 3: "Jingle Bells, Batman smells, Robin laid an egg. The batmobile lost a wheel and joker ran away. Hey ya'll! Happy F***ing New Year!"
Other than that another interesting part of my day was when I went to B Bops with John and Stephanie. I ordered a sandwich called the "tummy pleaser". It was interesting and not that bad. At least I don't have to look back on my experience in Iowa think "what if I never had the tummy pleaser". I probably won't have one ever again.
