The Eccentric Auditor's Odyssey: A Saga of Spreadsheets, Scribes, and Surreal Shenanigans
So, there's this guy, right?
He's an auditor by profession, a …. Real … meticulous kinda fella and he's always had this… well he’s … always gotten into this real peculiar habit of jotting down random thoughts and ideas everywhere, I mean… REAL random – on napkins, receipts sometimes ones he even _ehhhhh_ pays on, even on the back of his hand….
_I always wondered about the ones on his hands … I mean come on?! Who does that outside of like high school girls like right .... or gypsies or something… heh I’m sorry I didn’t mean anything against gypsies… they have wonderful big huge families… you know… anyways…. What was I on ? OH! Ya….
One day, he decides he's going on a cruise - a big, fancy holiday kinda cruise,… you know …. You know those kind of cruiiiises… where you just get a chance to do nothing, deal with no one, and get drunk on the edge of a balcony 200 ft off from a HUGE ocean… I mean the Ocean is really HUGE I’m not sure if you knew that ;) but it is. … In fact...., fall off that little balcony all that way and it's like hitting concrete. heh. Well, You know I would never wanna well… _ahhhhhh ehhhhhh wellllll_ _scoffs_ anyways, HE thinks, "What better place to sift through my mountain of random musings and finally write that novel I've always wanted to write... like the greats! You know?! I mean I don't know I'm just a regular kind of guy... i mean i buy my books off of Amazon and such but by golly I don't READ them! I wouldn't want to put on airs... or such... By gosh that novel I've been dreaming about! Holy,,,, moly I’ve been _shakes head at self smiling_ I would love to finish that…. …. …. I remember I started that nigh on … four or six… huh maybe 3 years ago… when ha… I was a younger man …. A more virile man… before eh uh… that injury…. What a gift from an angel of some kind of god would that be!" He scoffed 😊
To I mean finally his life’s long passions writ out to… you know… what do those fancy types call it something like eh uh … largesse…. ? I don’t know I’m not a fancy man with a bunch of paper on my wall. That was really all my grandmamaaa…. Merget… she had the strangest name… we always thought hey Aunt, I mean heh, almost screwed up my own joke there, Grandmam MERget she just loveeeed wallpaper… really any paper…. In fact she used to keep all kinds of little papers everywhere too! I remember as a young boy….. finding just handfuls of papers everywhere in that house when I would visit… course she never had anything fancy or clever like, Tom, oh shit, I mean “out guy” ;) … Well….. anyways… before its time to get too into that whole DEBACLE of Grandma Merget and the thing that happened with my sister, god rest her soul, …. Heh I wanna finish my story about TOM, our guy, Tom, you remember from before? ;)
Now, Tom, lets call him from here on out to protect his identity, “our guy”, is all about preparation, I mean he’s an auditor right? He loves the spreadsheets, he loves the bright colored pens, course he’d never admit that part…. You know …. You know why ;) … He packs EVERYTHING he could possibly need and he really had a list you know right? - clothes for every possible weather, his favorite pens, and, of course, a stack of password journals. "Why password journals?" you ask. Well, he's buying one for his friend Veronica, who, bless her heart, can't remember a password to save her life. He thinks, “In the age of technology, Veronica’s like a library in a smartphone world.”
On the first day of the cruise, he finds the perfect spot on deck, spreads out his notes, you know he does it real nice right? 😊 but of course well its really kind of a weird thing to do on a cruise you know? Anyways, and starts to work. Hours pass. A whole day passes right. Incredibly, weeks pass…. Well he was on a He's scribbling away, lost in his thoughts, I mean really lost, when a lady, I mean a real lady, approaches him. She's curious, asks him what he's doing with all these papers. He explains, "I'm an auditor, you see, but also a writer. I'm working on a novel."
The lady, intrigued, asks him what his novel is about. He pauses, looks at his scattered notes, and says, "Well, it's a bit complicated. It's about an ancient Egyptian term, 'whew-wehka-du,' a magical plant that was a big deal in the middle dynasty. But, get this, it’s also a comedy about life’s ironies and the human condition. I wish Grandma Merget coulda bene here she would have liked you a lot. Sadly, she died of irony overdose while in a hot tub in Florida while filming a rap video…. But I, heyyyy I don’t wanna talk about myself all day. “ She looks interested and he thinks to himself, “WOW I mean this nice lady might be the one!” Just as he’s about to put all his notes, you mean, I mean all that … awwwwwwwpapppppers….anyways…. this young nice lady…. Was really… keeeeeeeeeeeen on him and to be fair she was pretty young…. Well I mean she was older. So they did have to sort out some additional health issues and such but hey…. Well.. who doesn’t have their own problems am-i-rite? ;) …. Anyways so I wanted to tell you all of that to tell you that the day after an insurrexion really does get soft… You know… the thing about that whole guy!, I mean the guy himself he just really was always finding pens. Weird guy… Love that guy.
