After playing an extended game of Telephone Tag, I finally caught up with my friend. She told me that when she called me, she had enthusiastically wished me a "Happy Birthday!".
"Thank you!" came the reply.
"Wait a minute, you don't sound like Marianna," said my friend.
"No, I'm not, but it is my birthday today. So, thank you," answered the stranger.
When I shared that anecdote at a recent gathering, Doreen related an even better story. The conversation went like this:
— "Hi, Trudy! It's Doreen."
— "Hi, Doreen."
— "Funny, you don't sound like Trudy."
— "Well, you don't sound like Doreen."
Two funny instances of wrong numbers gone right. Do you have any such serendipitous conversations or encounters to share?
