Odd Things About Living Here

1. Describing a location on the island in the absence of street names and numbers
This is the first time I put the "address" of where one of the kids birthday parties is going to take place, based on features of the road to our house.  Allow me to quote... "take a right after the second drainage dip in the road on the way to the Corner Pizza place in North Hill".  Funny enough, EVERYBODY on the island knows where that road is, based on that description.

2. A conversation the Principal of the kids school had in my office on her cell phone
"Oh and next time you talk to Magic Johnson, please have him call me, I need to talk to him about something."
I hope that means that our fund raising efforts will pay off!

3. Having a client conference call interrupted - by a chicken!
I was at home having a conference call with a client early this morning and all of a sudden I hear this LOUD thump noise amplified by the outside hallway of our house.  Then "it" started to cluck  - LOUDLY to the point where the client goes "uh, what is that noise?"
And I can honestly say I've never uttered the words "I apologize, there is a chicken on my front porch" to a client!!
