It all started with the wrong number- of course it is almost the deadline for taxes, and of course we haven't had ours done yet. So yesterday we call our accountant, after receiving an email from him telling us to call anytime yesterday- so we did, 3 times, left 2 messages, and finally a man answers the phone and tells us he is dead. DEAD?!?!? I freaked out- What? how could this happen, we were completely stunned and full of questions. We try to call the people that would know, can't get ahold of anyone. I'm checking newspapers, I have no clue how quickly obituaries are put online now-I mean, why not instantaneously.
Actually why are we not wearing little chips inside of us that convey our health situation immediately to an online site- so when you are dead, your status ends up online - I mean dead- that would flash RED and LARGE. There would be no questions as to whether or not your heart has stopped. Maybe someday... who knows.
So next day - today, this morning, we finally get ahold of someone who would know- he laughs, tells us he just saw him yesterday, so this is starting to sound good. Phewff! He's alive!
All because of a wrong number- we eventually got our accountant on the phone, and did we ever laugh. We were so excited and happy! Everything was going to be great and not to mention our taxes will be filed on time... maybe next year I will learn to get things done faster.
