    Today I ran my department’s staff meeting and one of the items on our agenda was "Which Muppet Are You and Why?"

    Answers:

    "A combo of Miss Piggy and Kermit… so I guess that would be Gonzo. I’m nice with dramatic flair." (Me)

    "A combo of Kermit freaking out and Skeeter keeping things calm."

    "Grover."

    "Fozzie Bear... except on the days when I’m Oscar the Grouch."

    "Cookie Monster… I just love cookies."

    Oscar the Grouch was always my favorite, followed closely by Cookie Monster.

    Interestingly, I grew up into a sort of cranky adult with self-indulgent/hedonistic tendancies. Muppets really can predict the future. #sesamestreetanniversary

    @morninggloria: As a child, I cried when the kids hid from Barkley in the closing credits—"Why are they being so mean to the doggie?"—and I grew up to be the kind of person who cries at "Animal Cops" shows on TV.

    @bluebears: Exactly.

    It's so weird but I find myself forgetting that they are puppets. It's not that I think they're real but....oh, this is too hard to explain.

    Does anyone know what I mean? #sesamestreetanniversary
