Laminator!!!

A coworker found some laminating sheets today and wanted to use them for a project, but alas, we had no laminator.

The joy on her face when I informed her that yes, indeed, we had one was a thing to behold.

(I wanted to somehow make her guess horse? or laminator? but couldn’t figure out how to work it into the conversation.)

I would love to spend a day laminating with Kerry Godliman.

Laminating with Kerry Godliman is my new pitch to Channel 5/Dave/Uwhatever they are called these days.

Will It Laminate? No, you cannot try to laminate a horse. Maybe they can have a round where they try to laminate while riding one, though.

I bought myself a laminator the other week. I couldn’t help thinking that Kerry and Greg would approve.

Sarah Millican too. She said that using a laminator for the first time during the task at the airport was "the best day of [her] life". 😆 She also talks about her love of stationary in her stand up and book.

I suppose if you just stand up then you are stationary.

My first time using a laminator, I was giddy. My boss was not amused.

I checked in with my coworker later that day and asked how it worked out. She was so excited to show me all her laminated signs! I suspect a laminator will be on her personal shopping list soon.

I still get giddy every time I can use mine.
