TV loves me!

name-calling

Some names the kids at work have called me:

know your enemy

A flyer from work.

"What was he wearing?"

"A hat... or maybe a cap..."

"Did he have any sort of physical injury or disability?"

"Yes. His pants had a patch on the left knee."

a lot of question

My favorite recent email:

If this is Mrs. or Miss Somers plz contact me at [address deleted] plz I'v got a lot of question. If this isn't the address of actor Chrissy please send me her address . Thank you

See, must have a direct actor Chrissy connection- after all, I have access to her private conversations...

Happy Bear

Jump

Today was "Jump Rope for Heart" day at work. For some it was combined with our new literacy program and Dr. Seuss Day. I was the DJ - that's right, spinnin' the wheels of steel- so I recorded a show intro.
