Mistaken Identity
While waiting for the elevator at work, I said hi to another employee. She looked at me oddly and also said hi. In a whisper she then asked, "Did you resolve that problem?"
I asked, "What problem?"
"With the aide."
I said, "Huh?"
"You know, the problem with the aide."
Again I said, "Huh?" (I can be so articulate sometimes.)
It turned out that she thought that I was the nurse who strangled the aide awhile back. Now, I admit that I have thought about strangling people. Heck, I've even been strongly tempted on occasion, but I have never actually strangled anyone. It wasn't me. Who else thinks I'm the strangling nurse?

Boy, it's always the ones you would suspect. You seemed so mild to me.
See? Now you've got a REPUTATION! **giggle** ;-)
Thanks, HP. This weekend I'm going to try your recipe with American ingredients. I wish that I had access to your ingredients instead. I think that dogs are almost always better than people.
R2ks, it's the quiet ones you have to watch out for and I'm quiet and reserved by nature.
Karen, I never thought that I would be a woman with a reputation. I can't believe that someone hears about a strangling nurse and thinks, Oh, that must be Melissa.
