One day several weeks ago my day started off really bad. I will not get into it here, as it has been resolved. I walked into one of my bosses (I currently have 3) office, and told her that I was leaving and when I returned could she please pretend that it was 8:30. I needed to start my day again.
Digging through her desk drawers she came up with two options to keep me there. One a mini bottle of Jack Daniels. Only to be used in extreme emergencies, and she thought that this situation qualified. The second option was a McDonald's Happy Meal toy. I took the second option, after all I was expected to stay AND work. A little JD would not have been helpful. The office administrator, Stephanie, offered her 20 multi colered sharpies, and I got to work.
Elmer was born. (His name was also supplied by Stephanie.)
Elmer has been on many adventrues with me. People do sometimes think its a little weird when I pull out this little plastic toy, but I think its fun and funny in a little bit of an off sort of way. Really I blame one of my college roommates (Mary) for making me this way.
Here are the latest adventures of Elmer.
