Daily Spotlight- Guido!!!

Brian said the daily spotlight is long overdue, and I couldn't agree more. Luckily I have the perfect person in mind...my good buddy Guido. Guido has been a good friend of mine ever since that fateful day of double jacking at the Jordan Commons where we spent an hour on the Cosmo quiz instead of working. Guido is a funny kid. When something is really cute, and I mean cute in the way girls think of cuteness such as two old people holding hands or a little kid in a halloween costume, it's impossible for her not to say CUUUUUUUUUTE! and then do a weird face like she's sad. It's hillarious and you can see it coming from a mile away! Speaking of "cute" Guido is known for her "cute mix" CDs. We had more than a couple different cute mixes kicking around apartment 4-H. Pretty much every cute mix is the same, but not to hear Guido tell it! A little country, a little Jojo...just a cute mix.

For as girly as Guido is though, she's really really good at sports. I'd go so far as to say that if I had to pick a girl I know to be on my team at any sport, I'm taking Guido everytime. Sanchez (as she likes to be called) is really amazing at bowling. She owns one of the coolest bowling balls I've ever seen (a #12 billiard ball), shoes, bowling bag, its incredible. I've probably bowled with Guid-fish close to a hundred times and beat her maybe twice. She's incredible.

Guido has celiacs so she's always avoiding flour and eating crazy food. But sometimes, she just says screw it and goes crazy only to be sick later( i.e. the McDonalds fries episode circa 2007). A couple weeks ago we had Little Ceasers in the call center for customer service week. I went over to say whats up to Guido and she was just leaned back in her chair with the biggest, stupidest smile on her face and a trash can full of pizza slices with the toppings pulled off. She had gone through just pulling off the gross cheese and sauce (which will still make her sick), ate it, and just laid back talking about how amazing it was for like an hour. Poor Guido.

Just yesterday Brian and I went to lunch just laughing our heads off about how Guido just does not care about looking like a dork for our amusement. It's a beautiful thing. Nothing makes me happier than looking across a crowded room to see her doing the kid dance (bouncing up and down with some weird face and her hands in the air saying "kid kid kid kid kid kid..."). She has alienated her family using stupid words we made up, such as "poss", and she doesn't blink an eye. She embraces the retardation, and that's just part of what makes her so special. Guido is one of my favorite people in the world.
