More talk about money this morning spurred my memory. My lawyer transferred me money not too long ago. Being my absentminded self, I gave him the wrong account number. So I phoned the bank. And this is what happened.
Me: My lawyer sent my money to the wrong account number.
Bank representative: How did that happen?
Me: I gave him the wrong account number.
Bank representative: Oh.
Me: How do I get my money?
Bank representative: That's a tricky one.
Me: How tricky?
Bank representative: Well... You're money is probably somewhere in cyberspace.
Me: Like Limbo?
Bank representative: Yes.
Me: Can I phone Limbo?
Bank representative: You could have, but I believe Limbo has closed for the evening.
Me: What time does Limbo open tomorrow?
Bank representative: You see, by tomorrow your money could be anywhere.
Me: Oh.
Bank representative: Is there anything else I can help you with today?
Me: Have you ever been to Limbo?
Bank representative: No ma'am, I haven't.
Me: Will there be someone there tomorrow?
Bank representative: Yes. Would you like the number?
Me: Yes please.
Bank representative: Good luck and hold for the number.
I assume this sort of thing happens to everyone, but something tells me I'm wrong...
