"I don't wanna drink Amanda's water. It has Amanda's spit in it. I want my own water with my own spit in it to drink." - Alyssa
"I thought school was going to be exciting, like a theme park. It wasn't." Amanda, an old one I stumbled across from August 2008
My favorite phone call of the week happened after we repeatedly ignored calls from the same 800 number. Finally Scott answered, putting the call on speaker phone. It went something like this...
Telemarketer: Is Scott T*** available?
Scott: Why yes, I do happen to be available.
Telemarketer: Great, well this is some random person calling from some big credit card company and the purpose of this call is, first of all, to thank you for being such a loyal customer. We also want to let you know that we have noticed a continued rise in the crime of identity theft and we would like to let you know about some of the things we would like to do in order to protect you...
Scott: Okay but how do you know that I really am Scott T***?
Telemarketer: (long pause) Because you said you are.
Scott: Well that would be your first mistake. And I'm supposed to believe you're going to protect me from identity theft?
Telemarketer: Thank you. (CLICK!)

I'm really sick of the motivational calendar on my desk, can I have one with Alyssa's daily quotes for Christmas this year?
