We’re all bunch of Native Nevada girls on this staff, except for our Rhode Island Witness Protection Italian connection, so it should have been no surprise that our first staff lunch included a platter full of Rocky Mountain Oysters for an appetizer smack in the middle of the table.
This of course led to trading battle stories of our growing up years, our first pocketknives, and then an admission from our Basque baby that in fact, you do use your teeth on lambs.
There was also a lively discussion on the various methods of tendergroin removal – including the rubber band which seems to have gained popularity in recent years.
We’ve also been working on a playlist – We do this thing in the office where someone will spontaneously break into song in the middle of a sentence. Especially when stress is really high, because of course, there is a song for every situation.
We started writing all those songs down on a list on the wall and then Viviane suggested we keep a list of all the songs we listen to as we are writing and putting out the paper. She is getting our social media in order and she has plans for our list.
The list is fairly diverse; everything from Alabama Shakes, Prince, and Dwight to Dusty Springfield and Gov’t Mule. Altogether we span quite a plethora of generational music – from the 60-year-old, our 50s, 30s and our wee babies who are 22 years old. If we add Vic in there, we have the 80s covered as well – everything but the 40s.
Anyone in that decade looking for something fun to do with your spare time? Come join the team. We will want to see your pocketknife to see if you will fit in. It’s a tough crowd around here – I wouldn’t mess with us. We also have AC/DC on our playlist.
Keeping you posted,
Rachel
