So I was sitting at my desk this morning, doing a bit of research for a story I planned to write when our receptionist came and poked her head over my cube.
"There's an irate lady that wants to talk to a reporter about running for city council," she said.
"Uh...okay. The primary is tomorrow, so..." I trailed off.
"She wants to be a write-in or something."
"All right," I said, following her toward the front of the office, a notebook in hand.
Up front I met a thin woman with large sunglasses and poofy hair. I introduced myself and then I pointed to the leather chairs in the reception area and asked her if she'd like to chat. We sat down and, without removing her sunglasses, she started her story--a tale of intrigue, mystery, conspiracy, and even attempted murder.

Are you serious? Probably the funniest thing I've seen/heard in some time. Thank goodness that guy didn't bring anything to throw!
I'm still laughing!!! Can you hear me because it's loud. Is it making your house shake? It might be a rogue laugher!
