Don't stick your fingers in a vacuum
that is on and working, it will angrily bite them off. There, that's the tie in
to the title now for two totally unrelated funny anecdotes.
We had a big staff lunch today and a man (let's call him George) was sitting across from me. I glanced over and he was tilting his head awkwardly to the side and staring at me. He said, "Why are you wearing your nametag sideways, Jenna?" The group at the table laughed and I thought of something to say, hesitated and then said it anyways, "So I can tell when people are staring it and I can say, "My eyes are up here."" The guy next to me said, "Yeah me too." Another guy chimed in,"I have that problem too, and I'm not even wearing my nametag." All eyes went to his chest. "My face is up here," he said.
My sister's iTunes apparently groups "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" in with her Country playlist. So we began talking about Christmas songs and my mom's least fave is "Susie Snowflake." She explained, "Susie Snowflake sounds like a lady of the night." Then she proceeded to sing the lyrics, I will never think of that song the same way again. Look up the lyrics and you won't either. Here's a selection;
Here comes Susie Snowflake
dressed in her snow white gown
tap tap tapping on your window pane
to tell you she's in town
If you wanna build a snowman, I'll help you build one, 1 2 3
If you wanna have a sleigh ride....
WHEE! the ride's on me.
Oh Susie Snowflake, you don't have to put on that red light- Oh, wrong song. I got musically distracted there.
