The Receptionist Where I Work...

...looks like Elaine Stritch. Would it be rude if I asked her to sing 16 bars of "Ladies Who Lunch"?

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

As a kid, I once got in trouble for asking a lady if she was the woman in the where's the beef commercials.

Gotham, I would try a subtler approach. Ask her if she wears a hat.
Then, if she says yes, ask for the whole damn song!!!

Ask her to tell you the Caca story! It's a scream!

Ask her out to the bar. Or AA.

"Ask her if she wears a hat."

That's an idea. I could sidle up to her desk and ask in a snarky voice: "Does anyone...still wear...a hat?" If she says "I'll drink to that", then I'm asking for the entire song.

If she hasn't mentioned her diabetes by now, she's definitely not Stritch.

Here's the thing: I know she's not Stritch in the flesh because I've worked with Stritch, but I bet anything this is Stritch's stand-in during the Blackout Years.

I'm a bit peeved that our company is using Central Casting to find receptionists (or in the case of our regular receptionist that looks like Stritch, The Equity Home for the Aged).

Her name isn't Carol, by any chance, is it?

Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

"The Actors' Fund works in mysterious ways."

I'm beginning to see the way they work!

"Her name isn't Carol, by any chance, is it?"

No, it's Agnes.

At one of the ad agencies I worked at we had a receptionist named Carol who looked just like Stritch, and she knew it. Every Christmas she would get on one of the conference room tables and sing THE LADIES WHO LUNCH. She was a scream.

There were two receptionists at the temp agency I worked through in L.A. who actually went on to successful acting careers. One was CCH Pounder... the other was a guy who played Beau for a few years on Days Of Our Lives.

re: The Receptionist Where I Work...

Bo on "Days" for a while (Robert Kelker-Kelly)...

re: The Receptionist Where I Work...

He was a very nice guy. We went to lunch a few times while he worked at the agency. It was about a year before he got the soap gig.
