I opened up my email at the office this morning and saw one from the managing partner of the law firm we use. Good grief, what now? Usually, the news comes from one of the associates, so I braced myself for a real kidney punch.
Quite the opposite. I received a distinction for which I would trade all my imitation walnut plaques and imitation gold plated imitation plastic trophies.
She had attended a banquet last night. The emcee posed a question to the audience about who was the first to do something and offered a gift certificate as the prize. She answered correctly and won it. I was the answer.
I don’t think I’ve ever been the answer to a trivia quiz before. At least one that didn’t involve extradition law or evolution.
I told her she owed me the certificate or at least a split. I had turned down an invitation to the banquet. If I had been there, I probably would’ve guessed the answer.
