My Afternoon Zee Party


A conversation at work yesterday went something like this ...





Me: The name you need is Liza.

Co-worker: Can you spell that?

Me: L-I-Z-A

Co-worker: L-I-T-A?

Me: Z-A

Co-worker: G-A?

Me: Z. For Zoo. Z-A.

Co-worker: Z for ... ...? L-I-...T-A?

Me: Zoo. Z-A.

Co-worker: ... G-A?

Me: ... ... ...

(lightbulb moment, as I remember where I am)

... Zed!
L-I-Zed-A!
Zed! For Zoo!

(At this point, co-worker was so confused, he said, "So, L-I-T-Zed-A ...? ... But, we got there soon after).

I've never actually used "zed" before yesterday, despite how common it is here.


I think that makes me the star of the zedbutante ball!

  2. What Libby said. Seriously, I nearly posted the same comment, then saw what she'd written. Great minds, and all that. ;p

    Too funny!
