So, Messy Bessie over here was the designated artist for purposes of poster drawing in Business Banking class today. We kept having to explain things "using pictures only--no words!" and I apparently have the coordination of a six-year-old when it comes to using markers. This is after at least three good scrubbings with soap and water. Water colors! Pshaw!
The trainer running class is from Nebraska and always jokes with me about the Midwest and the differences between there and here. He was laughing about how, in the Midwest, 99% of small talk revolves around the weather. (It's that whole if you don't like the weather, wait five minutes! thing.) And it's SO TRUE! I remember joking when I was moving here that my opener with clients was going to be, "So how about the weather? Sunny and 75 again!"
