In other news, while on my sickbed...

Which was actually a couch, parked in front of the TV. That's not the important part.

This afternoon, the doorbell rang. It was an honest to goodness federal agent. A G-man, a fed, The Fuzz. Badge and credentials and everything.

Turns out one of my former upstairs neighbors is applying for a security clearance of some sort, and the guy was investigating her. He was trying to get in touch with her old housemates to interview them.

After he realized that the longest conversation I'd probably ever had with her was: "'Hi, I'm Ari, I just moved in downstairs.' 'Hi, I'm so-and-so, I'm on the second floor,'" he lost interest.

Still, interesting.

I got one of those calls once.. someone had listed my husband on a security clearance application. I explained that he was at work, caller asked if by any chance I knew the applicant. Things got a little funny after I laughed and said she was hubby's ex girlfriend! But I was able to verify that she was in college for the relevant years, so all was well.
