Dear caller:

No, I cannot tell you how much a round of golf costs. Do you know why? Because I'm a receptionist in a podiatrist's office. No, I will not "make some calls" and find out for you. Do you know why? Because I'm a receptionist in a podiatrist's office.

It's not quite as random as it could be, because there is a golf course nearby--we can see it from our back window. She seemed a little unclear about its role in our lives, however; once we'd established that I'm not the Yellow Pages, our conversation went something like this:

Woman on phone: But aren't you L---?
Me: Um. L--- is a town.
Woman: Right. Where the golf course is.
Me: Also residents, businesses, a hospital, and our office.
Woman: *click*

Ah, yes. I do so love being mistaken for directory inquiries.
