Several of the dolls over the years have arrived at the girlette pod here missing a foot or part of an arm--the result, they say, of various calamities.
Pearl Duquette, for instance, says she lost her forearm in a shark attack.
Being of literal mind, however, I've always suspected that domestic animals are the main culprits.
I put it to the test:
With the cooperation (voluntary!) of Sunny Khan of the Girlette Expeditionary Forces, we are able to see how that might unfold in this 6-second documentary, starring wildcat Mr. Robinson:

Speaking of small animals.
My notes for yesterday's Bookstore Diary includes Asst Man coming in from the parking lot, where he takes smoke breaks by the dumpster, and announcing:
"Hey, guys---We can't keep leaving the door to the parking lot open--I just saw a squirrel going inside."
Coworker: Yeah, once a couple of them were in here at night and set off the alarm.
Is this factual, that squirrels set off the store alarm?
Maybe, but I wouldn't put money on it.
The staff is somewhat like the Duquette family--if there's an option, they always prefer The Better Story.

Sunny Khan, courage, knowing, understanding and confidence, a medal of bravery -in- the- extreme for her. Robinson also receives a medal- for curiosity, boldness and Not dead yet.
ReplyDeleteYour co workers are captivating, would make a great character studies, and to follow them home even more ...interesting. What Asst man does at 8:00 pm. might be unusual, or maybe not..
Yay for the lamp, It will be so pleased to live with you.
LINDA SUE: Sunny Khan is down for a special medal from the DEF (Dolls Expeditionary Forces), for bravery-in-the-extreme, as you so rightly say.
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting thought--what do my coworkers do at 8 PM? Though I think I know--a lot of them, like me, are *exhausted* and are lying down watching TV or sleeping (or, in my case, reading a book).
(It's a physically tiring job, even seemingly lightweight things like linens are heavy to handle for hours.)
