My letter to Grover
2001-04-05 12:44 p.m.
So, Lynne sent me an e-card from Sesame Street. Go, Lynne. While I was collecting it, I saw that the site also had a feature where I could send a message to my favorite Muppet, and he or she would write back to me.I instantly knew my life wouldn't be complete until I had written to Grover. I started planning the letter in my head: Dear Grover, I'm a grownup now. I'm a waitress. One of the cooks at my restaurant is named Charlie. I think of you and your waiter skits every time I talk to him. Remember? The cook in your restaurant was named Charlie too. So I say, "Hey Charlie! I need some alphabet soup for table 26!" and then I start giggling. Well, no. I haven't actually done that. But I think about it a lot. Your friend, Ana Ng." I guess I was imagining some poor employee of CTW going though the usual pile of "Hello Grover I am six and I love you" mail that he answers every day, and then finding my letter. It would have confused him. Then, I found out that what it actually entailed was me picking one question to ask Grover, and then getting the appropriate form letter response. So, I put my letter to Grover here, instead. Then, I realized that it looked an awful lot like I was copying pamie. She does the whole letters thing. So, I guess I'm gonna go post my letter on her forum instead. Grover is probably more likely to read it there anyway.
