Forces conspiring against me
Other than with my constantly rapidly-declining health, I'm not a paranoid person. I don't believe that there're big conspiracy theories. I'm sure that everything happens because of luck and happenstance and not because of evil. Except in this case.
I'm absolutely certain that the French Government has teamed up with Bank of America to make me miserable.
Didn't see that coming, did ya? Oh - but you SHOULD have. Because the two A.T.O.M. episodes I wrote were for the French company, SIP Animation. Having worked for them, I got sent a set of French tax documents that go to the French government and for some reason, they need to be signed by a bank. Bank of America won't do it - they have no idea what to do with French tax documents.
I've asked my fellow writer friends. They just took them to their bank and got them signed. Of course, all of them are with Washington Mutual, the Entertainment Industry's Credit Union, or some other small bank. So unless I want to move all my accounts to another bank (which is looking AWFULLY TEMPTING at this point), I'm back to fighting the windmills - calling and emailing everyone I can find to see if someone can help me get this form signed by a bank. I've been given the contact of someone at Bank of America who has previous experience handling French tax forms. Hopefully this guy will be my savior. Wish me luck.
Otherwise, I'm just going to have to hope the French IRS can't hunt me down. So if anyone calls you in a French accent, tell them I'm dead. Thanks!
