Okay, getting less funny. Whispering phone creep is back (just past 5pm here). "Hello gorgeous. How are you today?" I didn't answer (really couldn't think of what to say), just left the line open in case he said anything by which I could identify him (the idea that I might know him is the most creepy). He said, "Hello?", like he was expecting me to answer (!), then hung around in silence for about 10 seconds, bit of rustling, and then he hung up.
Police weren't especially helpful - just advised me to change my phone number. Which I am going to do - getting a new one this weekend. Ugh, though. I'll report this call, too. Steadily less amused by this.
ETA: Just so you don't think I'm freaking out / being murdered - I'm going to be incommunicado over the next few evenings, because my computer is being repaired (I'm borrowing the bf's computer to post this). I am still going to be online at work, so I'm not vanishing altogether - but it occurred to me that to post the above and then be uncharacteristically quiet might be a bit worrisome. :)

Ah. Good call.
I just don't know how certain people get let out of the house.
