Picture This...



Phone Call: "This is ______ from ______ Elementary attendance office calling about your daughter's absence from school today."

My Response: "Ummm, both of my daughters are IN school today."

Caller: "Er, hold on a minute. I'll call you right back. Let me check this out."

Response: No response actually.

...Three very slow minutes pass on the clock...

Phone Call: "Mrs. Montoya?"

"Yes..."

Caller: "She is actually in class. I apologize for the mistake."

Actual time my heart stopped beating? I would say about three minutes - give or take a few seconds.

  1. I too literally would've had a heart attack if that were me. I'm impressed you didn't call 911 and organize a search party during those 3 minutes!!
