Last week I needed to renew a prescription, so I punched in the numbers for what I thought was the Kaiser Permanente Pharmacy. A male voice came on asking, “What can I do for you?”

Thinking I had reached a recording, I said in a hesitant voice, “Refill a prescription?”

The male voice chuckled, “I can’t do that. In fact, it would probably be illegal.”

Seems I had misdialed and reached a call service for a plumbing company inOhio. The gentleman asked me where I was calling from. “Loveland,Colorado.”  Another chuckle. “Well, I could arrange for a plumbing house call for you, but the travel expenses might be prohibitive.”

We both shared a hearty laugh. A lovely way to begin my day!
