OMG! YAY! WorkWin!
This weekend the International New Age Trade Show is happening in the North of the MetroPlex and that means we are overrun with artists and authors and sales reps and whatnot. Today BookGoddess brings a couple guys through the mailroom and says "Hey, this is the owner of Lo Scarabeo."
To which I replied, "Wait, WHAT?!" And I turned around and she pointed out a little man who was smiling huge and just so gleeful, you had to smile in return. I said, "Really, Lo Scarabeo, Tarot, you mean for real?"
She nodded.
I immediately bowed in the arms out worshipful way one does. And he laughed, threw his arms around me and said, "No! You no worship me, I worship!"
We chatted and smiled and exchanged business cards and then he gets on his knees and bows, worshipfully. Several times. And then jumped up and hugged and kissed me. He told me to email him in his darling Italian accent and I wanted to put him in my pocket and keep him.
It was a VERY GOOD DAY in the mailroom and I am all still OMG!OMG!OMFG! about it all.
That's Mario in the teal coloured shirt, owner of Lo Scarabeo and then me and then Bill the Llewellyn sales rep who was taking Mario around INATS and brought him to see us since we are their BIGGEST client. Isn't Mario a darling!? He was SOFA KING SWEET!
