RE: Intern Jeff Skinner

Let’s be honest.  I got the internship here at WUYS because I was the only person qualified.  I mean, what kind of Craigslist ad asks if you’ve ever competed in figure skating and hockey?  How many people can say that?

The TV stations like to show my figure skating highlights a lot.  It’s kind of embarrassing (I am wearing tights), but Pants and Chuck love it.  If only they’d stop yelling, “Finger painting?!” while I’m trying to answer the phone.

Jazz hands

On Saturday I scored my 50th point of the season in a loss against Columbus.  I’d rather have a win, but the WUYS girls got me a really nice life-size canvas to hang in my apartment.

They also promised to watch my big game tonight against Buffalo on Versus (7 PM).  We really need to win so we can stay in the playoff race.  I haven’t been this stressed out since the parallel parking section of the driver’s test!  Pants and Chuck have scheduled a meeting so I can work on my staredown.

this is my serious face

Wish us luck tonight, and watch the game!

    Jeff – we need to have a discussion about your moving the Junior Mints and chocolate cookies from their usual place in the staff kitchen cupboards and replacing them with protein bars. And can you also explain why all my favorite sodas have been replaced with Gatorade? And the blue one too.

    We girls have needs. Do it again and I’m replacing your cell phone ring tone with something tortuous by Justin Bieber or Whitney Houston. I can’t be running out to the 7-eleven every time I stop by to visit the girls.

    Ps you look totally FETCH in your little Jimmy costume! Wear it tomorrow, k?

        I felt it was the most appropriate comment given his blond curly perm wig, no?

        And FETCH it is, Chuck. It is SO on!

    True story – I hired an intern today. I bet her jazz hands aren’t as good though.

    • Jeff’s jazz hands are quite spectacular spectacular.
