Here's a pretty funny email forward I got at work today. Enjoy!
One day my mother was out and my dad was in charge of me and my brother
who is four years older than I am. I was maybe 1 and a half years old and had just
recovered from an accident in which my arm had been broken among other
injuries.
Someone had given me a little 'tea set' as a get-well gift and it was one of my
favorite toys. Daddy was in the living room engrossed in the evening news and
my brother was playing nearby in the living room when I brought Daddy a little
cup of 'tea', which was just water.
After several cups of tea and lots of praise for such yummy tea, my Mom came
home. My Dad made her wait in the living room to watch me bring him a cup of
tea, because it was 'just the cutest thing!!'
My Mom waited, and sure enough, here I come down the hall with a cup of tea for
Daddy and she watches him drink it up, then says, "Did it ever occur to
you that the only place that baby can reach to get water is the toilet??"
If there's one big secret that most of my friends don't know, it's that I'm pretty good friends with Carmen Electra. Anyways, it's too hard to keep it a secret anymore. Plus, rumors and videos are starting to pop up. Below is one of them. Now that you know that I'm friends with her, please don't bug me to ask her for autographs, pictures, etc. She's actually a pretty private person when it comes to her personal life.
Should I apply just because the title is so cool? haha
