morrigirlAfter picking up my graduation tickets and my Senior Challenge cup this morning, I popped into the Gizmo just to see if anyone was hanging out. I walked in, scanned the place, didn't see anyone I knew and was turning to leave when Linda called out "Carla, don't leave!"
"Okay," I said, and went over to the counter as Linda disappeared into the back. She emerged carrying a card and a large scented candle.
"This is from Pinky and me," she said. "Happy graduation."
Let me tell you I was dumbfounded! I know the Gizmo ladies always buy gifts for their graduating employees, but I certainly never expected them to get anything for ME!!! I mean all I ever did was eat in there all the damn time! I was just so touched that they thought of me. Just confirms what I've always said, that the Gizmo ladies are some of the nicest people on campus.
Found out later that Tina got one too. Both of us thanked Pinky at the luncheon.
They say it's gonna be nice outside tomorrow. A beautiful day for a graduation that's been a long time coming.
