random...

Story time...

A friend of a friend teaches kindergarteners in NYC and has been having career days, asking different professional acquaintences to come talk to the class about their work. She announced to class that her fiancé, who is a doctor, would be coming the next day. The kids were really excited, although they'd misunderstood a key word and thought they were getting a very very special guest in their class "Beyoncé's coming tomorrow??" they asked.

I told my mom the other day to 'channel her inner Patti' to give her that extra added boost of confidence, ferocity and volume. She actually followed my advice (!) and ended up having words with her supervisor (fortunately, no teapots were at hand!)and told me later that from now on she was going to "give Inner Patti a cookie" to keep her mouth occupied.
