I can bring the glam to the water! THE LETTER: Dear Buoys and Boarders, Do you know that I’ve always had a fantasy of being a ranger type? Like, put on a uniform and patrol the parks or the water, or the woods. Cuz, stuff can happen there! But I hope not a lot of bad stuff because I don’t want to have to use a gun. I just want to look cute and be all-authority and stuff. Which I can do in a nice way. Because I’m nice. And I want to wear a badge. Plus, my uncle was a police officer. But he got in trouble when he asked a 16-year-old how she got her Mardi Gras beads, and then he told her how it’s done and her mom was really mad. So now he works security at Walmart.

Now, I think we could use a little freshening up of the uniforms, because khaki is just so boring, but if we have to keep those colors, I suggest we wear some Skechers in hot pink or something. Cute and useful, right? I’m really great at giving tours. Many of my phone clients have translated into other opportunities where they have big parties at their homes and they want the ladies there to entertain, and so I always show the girls around the homes and make it sound so awesome. And, I’ll be great with security. I have a pink taser, and I’m a fan of the movie “Broken Arrow”. And wasn’t what’s-her-face a park ranger? Yeah. I practiced her moves and stuff. So… It’s The Climb, Suzi P.S. I really hate bugs, so can I limit my time outdoors? |
