My wake up call
Adults have always considered me mature for my age since childhood, therefore my true coming out of age happened at twenty-three years old. I had despised alcoholics my whole entire life. To me they were despicable especially drunk parents. An alcoholic single mother of two raised me triggering me to swear off alcohol at the age of ten. I promised myself that I would never be like my mother. Then came my twenty-second birthday. My roommate offered me a margarita, “Drink this Leslie, its your birthday and its only a tiny bit of tequila. “I felt the heat down my throat, it had been a cool icy slushy with a bitter hint. I stopped soon after but I felt myself giggling a bit. This had been my first time getting drunk. I felt invincible and unlike my mother, I did not become violent or bully children. I made everyone laugh and have a good time.

Don Vito
Don Vito Corleone For pup of the month I nominate Don Vito Corleone, my office buddy! January 2020, I started working at a hotel during the pandemic. To my surprise the first day I applied a furry yellow fellow by the name of Vito greeted me. He was a two-year-old golden retriever that belonged to the owners. During the beginning of the COVID, Vito’s company bought me plenty of ease dealing with rowdy guests, provided genuine comfort at the office and taught me about golden retrievers. Vito deserves to be the employ paw of the month for more reasons beyond his existence.
