The caller

Over and over they called. Some mysterious 800 number that only called when I was asleep.

Remember that I sleep during the day, so this isn't entirely unusual.

So day in and day out they keep calling, leaving no voice mail and the caller ID is blank. I tell myself that whatever it is must be important, otherwise they'd have stopped trying to get ahold of me. I also tell myself that it can't be that important because they never leave a voice mail.

I was awake when they called last. Once I said "hello" a machine thanked me and asked me to continue holding.

The person that invents a way to detonate a callers phone will be insanely rich.
