Hoping for something, anything, and getting nothing

I was expecting a phone call from someone, and I didn't know why. He just emailed me asking me for my work number and a good time to call. So I started thinking about all sorts of possibilities, and I had grand ideas of what it could mean. "Is it a job thing?" "Could I be getting some great offer for something exciting?"

No, it was a computer security problem. Not mine, but I use the machines that had the security breach, and the reason nothing was sent via email was because of a desire to keep this quiet. So it was just a "make sure all computers that connect to this one are checked for any breaches" call.

Alas.
