A lovely, helpful lady from the tax department rang me today at work - see the previous blog - Monday's - about my email to them about getting a gigolo/male escort for research reasons. She confirmed to me this was not the oddest question they had ever had and she didn't find it strange at all. I used to work for the government. I know what weird crap they deal with. You have to be pretty broadminded to deal with the public in any official capacity. Anyway she explained there was a form to fill out and send back and the tax office would make a ruling about the male escort as a “consultant” thing for a writer. You know you can do almost anything in life as long as you have the right form. We chatted on what I would use his knowledge for. I believe I made her day.
So that was fun and somewhat disappointing I did not freak the tax department out but I’ll work on that. I’m almost positive I can confuse them. Second highlight of the day – I ordered a 2010 Queensland Firefighters Calendar last week – for charitable reasons of course - and I had been waiting for it to arrive in the mail. I wanted it yesterday as I had endured a crapacious day and I felt looking at lovely ‘quiet’ male bodies would be soothing to the soul - but it didn’t arrive. Bugger. I almost got back into the car yesterday to drive around to the local fire station and demand they take off their shirts but occasionally I can be rational and voila – the calendar was awaiting me when I got home today. Niiiiice….or Noice – in Aussie speak.
May your day be as interesting…
