I've been Scammed!

Wilson wooed me with Miguel music before beginning the meeting. I love Miguel. 

Of course to start off the meeting we had our very own in-house awkward guy, Jon, give announcements in his usual timid manner. He often times doesn't know whether or not to attempt to inspire or to tell a joke to lighten the mood which causes him to forget how to explain where the exits are. Every. Single. Time. *sigh.

Nonetheless, we started on time and had our very own fashion guru Lorna give us the run down of what she does on a day to day basis titled, "The Other Side of the Beauty World". Spoiler alert, it's the other side of the beauty world, aka, not what you normally would see (see what I did there?). 

To sum it up, Lorna is a boss at her work place making sure stuff is done accordingly in lines with safety. She'll pose the question my mother used to always ask me, "What are you doing?" *with a more sinister tone of course, or of one that portrays annoyance.

Not only is Lorna in the business of risk management, but she's also in the business of advising for other business. So she's in the business of makeup and business success!

She's looking for a manager. Want to work with her on her team or know someone? Email her!

I found it funny that we couldn't shake Victor's hand throughout the meeting because he was sick. Given the habit of our usual handshakes, this called for awkward attempts to fist bump. We should totally make that a thing form now on, we're just cool like that.

Next up we had table topics led by our very own Jon R. (me).

According to a few sources, it was a nice little addition to add in "Not Jeopardy" as a play on to the theme and to our overall table topics session. Funny enough, I had the hardest time trying to think of questions so I'm glad it worked out okay for everyone.

Of course, let's not forget the amazing story that Kenn shared about having apparently gone through an initiation period with the Church of Scientology.

Just in case they're reading this, let just say, that folks, is a story I may never forget.

...Oh, and it's not "Jennifer". Her name was Stefanie! Just another one for the books there. If you were at the meeting, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about unfortunately.

Kudos to Terri for throwing another awesome Happy Hour at Gotts. Burgers were great, drinks were drinks, and the conversations were a thrill with stories and interesting facts. I learn a lot from my fellow SF Toastbusters.

​Ya'll know so much.
