Some years ago, on a particularly frantic work day, I was driving to a business appointment and remembered I had a doctor's appointment twenty miles in the other direction-- in an hour. There was no way I would make my doctor's appointment. I needed to call and cancel. But, I realized I didn't have the doctor's number. I called two numbers on the cell, hoping one was correct. Neither were...finally, frustrated and angry, I gave up and made the decision to call a client who'd called me earlier and left a message on my cell phone. I put in the phone number to call the client. A woman answered the phone and I asked to speak to my client. I was told she didn't work there, that I'd dialed Dr. ***'s office. What? I'd reached the doctor's office I needed to call to cancel my appointment. Okay. I told the receptionist my name and that I needed to cancel my appointment. She was very polite and told me that I'd called them about an hour before to cancel and that she'd given me a new appointment time for the next day. Only, I had not called and didn't even have the number with me to call. Who would be phoning my doctor, pretending to be me? And why? And how could I reach the doctor's office by using my client's phone number?(less)

“Life has a way of tugging you back with the tide and washing you up on the shore to deal with the living."
(Sing Me An Old Song - By Morgan James)”
― Morgan James a

“I suppose an angry river can rage inside every quiet heart, feeding on the hurt it endures and waiting for that one drop of water.”
― Morgan James a

“Tears blurred my vision and I had to wipe my eyes with my left hand, while holding the hose with my right. For all my efforts, the fire curled tight and fierce up into the darkened sky. And still, the barking continued like a hammer striking raw metal at my back. As I pulled the hose one more time to stretch it to the limit, I sensed movement off to my left. Fletcher Enloe, my neighbor and tireless commentator that city folks, like me, don’t belong in the mountains, emerged from the pine thicket separating our houses. A canvas, pork-pie fishing hat squeezed low over his thick gray hair, and his wiry body listed from the weight of a dark roll slung over his shoulder.”
― Morgan James, Quiet Killing
