Tall men are scary

Feb 12, 2006 02:27

I froze on the concrete stairway staring down into the solarium below. Rather like a glimpse into hell it was, in the sense that it was populated by a densely packed crowd of very tall, very solidly built men. Amongst them was a smattering of smartly dressed police officers ( Read more... )

Congrats on making it through the exam! I hope this works out for you! :)

Thanks! Keep us updated on your park rangering... that looks cool too... maybe if this fails I'll try to join the DEC police and become an investigator HA. The possibilities. Hippies taking over the police state from the inside out, who would have thought...

Well done, you will be busting puppy kickers in no time.

Oh I hope. Otherwise this is all for nothing, I'm afraid. Hey! What are you doing this weekend. I may be hosting a small highly alcoholic dinner.

Going to your small highly alcoholic dinner and getting only slightly drunk. Let me know when and where.

I wish you the best of luck. The most efficient way to get over a fear of cops is to come to England where they aren't scary at all. One of my good friends over here is becoming a police officer, and she's really nice. I really hope you get to be an animal cop! They need you!

I wish more nice people over here became police officers. It really is kind of a meat-head niche.

Kickass, Jami! i am all sorts of proud. :)
On a random note, you have a young twin in New Ipswich. I was a PE sub (how THRILLING!) for Appleton on Friday, and there was a 4th grader whose name i asked for because she looked so much like you i was convinced she must be a sister i don't know about. I know your siblings are way too old though. But anyway, she's Tiffany Harris's little sister McKenna. Oh well. She looks like you, very pretty little girl. She was fun, too. Thank god. When you're in a gym playing Jail Break all day, hunting the dodgeballs from the bleachers and such, you need to see a kid who doesn't suck at life. :)

That sounds like such a fun job! That's really funny because Rory Harris was my first boyfriend (this girl's brother). I actually know their family quite well. I basically lived with them kindergarten through second grade.

Oh, no shit! That's Rory's sister?? I kinda blanked on the fact that Rory was Tiffany's sister. Plus, he kinda disappeared, didn't he? Wow, that's neat. :)
