At work, I have my "goofed up" photo ops with Cliff and Michael hanging up in my cube. Last Friday, I was relieving the receptionist when the accounting manager (who I work with on a regular basis) walked by. She said "Are either of those guys in your cube your husbamd?" Cue me laughing and responding "I wish." Yeah, that'll be the day.

Anyway, she came by again today to disucss something, and she looked at the pictures, gave a little sigh and said "He's so hot!" I ask her to clarify which one, cos ya know, they're both so freaking hott!!! She indicated Cliff. I'm like, "Yeah. And he's such a sweetheart, too!" etc etc...

So, then we kind of got to talking about hot guys (my manager/boss/friend was out there, too). And I mentioned how Michael had an Irish accent in Judicial Indiscretion (waaaaaaaay too much hotness there) and she commented about how she doesn't like accents. They actually turn her off. I stared at her like she had three heads. Seriously? Accents aren't hot? Does anyone else feel that way? Or is she as strange and weird as that comment makes her sound?

Hi, Deb! I'm Kerri. Long time member of the Accent Whore's Anonymous. Welcome to the club. The first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem.

LOL :-D

Yeah, dear Lord. Whenever I hear an accent (European, specifically) it's goo time. Just no way to recover....

It's doubly bad for me... I work with two Irish guys, one French and one British. Trying to maintain some sort of professionalism when they walk in and ask for something is almost impossible.

*sigh*

Well, knowing her and all, I'd say she's just strange and weird. :p
I love accents, especially certain British ones. {ahem}
