The line

“How’d you end up here?”

“My owner left the grapes out, you?”

“I slipped on a sock in the bathroom and hit my head on the toilet seat. I can just imagine what my wife is saying to all of our friends.” They both turn to me. “How about you?”

I pause and shake my head.

“You’re in the wrong line. If you don’t remember how you died, you never got a chance to live, that’s your line over there.” The figure gives me an encouraging smile. “You get to try again.”
