Phone calls

Mary: "Dr. Grumpy's office, this is Mary."

Mrs. Coordinate: "I'm calling to update my address, you have the wrong one."

Mary: "Okay, let me look this up... I show you as living at 42 N. Fred Gwynne Drive."

Mrs. Coordinate: "Yes, that's correct."

Mary: "All right, so it looks like we do have the right one."

Mrs. Coordinate: "NO, you DO NOT have the right one. Otherwise I wouldn't have gotten this bill with the wrong address on it!"

Mary: "But how did you get the bill if it had the wrong address on it?"

(pause)

Mrs. Coordinate: "I guess you do have the right address. Never mind."

    She has a better mailman than I do. My mailman gives me lots of different people's bills. I just don't pay them.

    Is 42 N. Fred Gwynne Drive anywhere near 1313 Mockingbird Lane?

    It could be an old address and the mailman forwarded it.

    I know! Her other personality ran up the bill, right?

    Aw, you gotta love the cognitively challenged (at least when they are pleasantly confused).
