The other day I was at work and I answered the phone. A girl that was probably 12 or 13 asked if I could page someone. I told her that I couldn't page someone, but if she gave me the description of the person that I would try my best to find them. She went on to give me this description:
"Okay, my mom's name is Barbara. She has short reddish/brown hair. She's elderly (I suppose "elderly" to a 12 year old means that her mom is probably in her 40's). And she has 9 fingers. If you find her have her call Cora"
I tried not to laugh as I told her that I would go look for her mom. I know that it shouldn't be funny, but it was. There I was looking all over the library and trying to look at all these ladies fingers to see if they were missing any!!
I didn't find Barbara, but if you see a nine-fingered lady wandering around Provo...ask her to please call home! :)

you're like the spaniard from "the princess bride".
except that you were looking for someone with 9 fingers instead of 11.
and she didn't kill your father.
and you aren't a sword fighter.
but other than that, the resemblance is uncanny.
Hello, My name is Ann-Marie. You were called by your daughter 3 hours ago. Prepare to dial.
Okay, that was totally dumb but Kat started the Inigo Montoya thing.
Ha, ha, ha! Funny (the blog and the comments).
Oh, Erika's made me laugh.
Kat's too.
