Just when I thought there was nothing to blog about today,
here comes something from the “Totally Random” Department: I got a piece of
mail sent to me by name imploring everyone at work to take some time to
appreciate Italian heritage. It was a flyer with pictures of famous Italians
and Italian-Americans on it, and a list of suggested movies by and/or about
Italians. I certainly approve of celebrating all things Italian, but why me?
Why not Handy Woman, who is a real Italophile? Why not Richard Bonomo? After
all, neither my last name nor Travalon’s (I go by both) is Italian in the
least. I suspect I have somehow become the contact at my workplace for sending
flyers to be posted in a public space, because one was sent to me previously,
but it was something more prosaic about how to submit grievances. I just hang
them up in the breakroom. I don’t even know where they are coming from, because
they are sent via campus mail and have no return address, so there is no way to
stop them. Not that I want to, if they are going to be this random. I can’t
wait to see the next one they send me. Any speculations about what topic “they”
will cover next? Feel free to leave an idea in the comments section.
