Suzi's Cover Letter:

Dear Air Heads,

I really want to make an impact in this world. And I love air and the sun and stuff, so maybe this is it. My only concern is that I’m not a mom. I mean, I have a cute little wiener dog, so I’m a pet mom. But I’m not a mom, mom. My sister is a bad mom. I watch her kids all the time. Does that count? Plus, wouldn’t it better if I had this job instead of a real mom, because how can a mom of humans have enough time to do all the stuff you want them to?

I’ve been called “mommy” if that helps. One of my clients needed motivation to finish, so I let him call me moms.

I’m really good at making picket signs. I made a bunch when we were protesting wearing bikinis at the bikini car wash. Why did the bottoms have to be thongs? I don’t need butt floss when I’m bending over washing a car. Can’t I wear some more comfy bottoms? 
​

Anywho, here’s to the clouds, sun, and justice for all!

Suzi
