Getting Ready for the Academy Awards

"I would like to thank my director - Dan, my assistant directors, my boss - Eileen, who had such faith when she hired me in 1981 and my supervisor, Andrea who believes in me. To my co-workers who have stood by me and taught me much about the use of the computer, I thank you. I also would like to thank my loving family - my parents for giving me the gift of life, my sister who is my best friend. And, to Wes - I love you, man! To Anne for her supprt and patience as I went through my "bad jumper" phase. To John, for not throwing me out of the car when I brought him to high school wearing those embarassing sunglasses. To Jed, for accepting me as his MIL in spite of my bad cooking. To my friends, near and far - you know who you are! To all those "little people" (literally...they are between the ages of 2 to 5) I have worked with over the years. If I have forgotten to express my gratitude to any of you who have made me the person I am today, I beg your forgiveness. For all, I thank you from the bottom of my heart with "love, peace and soul!" Oh, and thank, you Don Cornelius!"

So, if I ever am presented with a really big award, I will be ready! For now, it just had to be the prize of getting a plateful of chocolate/chocolate chip cookies for being the winner of the random raffle drawing for replying (along with many others) to our staff blog. I'm the luckiest girl, am I not?
