Tongue in cheek police reports by a senior with selective memory.
I called the Got-It Police Department because I lost something. Not unusual for me.
Here is the exchange:
"Got-It Police Department. Officer Little-Patience speaking. How may I assist you?"
Me: "Officer, I would like to report a lost item."
Officer Little-Patience: "Okay, ma'am, can you describe it for me?"
Me: "I really can't, officer. If I knew what it looked like, I may find it."
Officer Little-Patience: "Okay! What is it you have lost, ma'am?"
Me: "I seem to have lost my memory, dearie."
Officer Little-Patience, frustrated: "Your memory?"
Me: "Yes, dearie! I seem to have lost it."
Officer Little-Patience, barely holding it together: "Your memory!"
Me: "Oh you found it! Great! Dearie, could you tell me what I was thinking 20 minutes ago, please?"
Officer Little-Patience, growling: "I don't know what you were thinking. But, I know what I am thinking."
Me: "That you are a great detective?."
Officer Little-Patience, huffing: "Not even close!"
Me: "They really need to get that phone fixed. It keeps exploding and crashing before I finish.
