Disaster Averted by SuperStar’s Brilliance

Rebekah Menter would have gone to work dressed immodestly, or at least ridiculously, had not a fortunate fumble on the part of SuperStar averted the danger.

Rebekah woke up fully prepared to wear very tight stretch pants with very brief shorts over top as part of her costume for “Superhero day” at work. Both items had been laid out on her futon–along with a pair of pants for “if I want to change”. Fortunately, the other pair of pants were on top of the pile and in her early morning grogginess, Rebekah put them on instead of the aforementioned tight and brief articles. She discovered that the other pants worked well for her purposes.

“SuperStar saved the day,” Rebekah declares. “If it weren’t for her I could have been the laughingstock of all campus–and might have had a horrible blot on my conscience.”

SuperStar was seen throughout the day at and around Harper Dining Services. She filled in for a missing employee on the grill during lunch–feeding hundreds of hungry Thespians grilled chicken sandwiches. During the afternoon, she was sighted at Housing, conversing with second floor staff. “It was so funny,” a housing employee claims. “She came in and I just had to take a picture.”

Although unable to prevent a young Thespian from tripping and unwilling to kill an unseen rat, SuperStar did show her heroics by rescuing a Dining Services student employee who was being held hostage by a coworker. SuperStar used her typical method of bad-guy elimination–making a star fall from the sky onto the bad-guy’s head. Jeff, the student employee, had mixed feelings about the rescue. “I could have been killed!” he said. “And SuperStar’s face is scary.”

SuperStar remained in the Harper serving area throughout the dinner period, greeting her admirers and posing for pictures. When she occasionally disappeared, her loyal fans begged for her return.

In an exclusive interview, SuperStar told bekahcubed: “The attention was gratifying. I enjoyed it very much. But somebody called me “SuperMama”. Do I really look that old?”

    LOL! You’re too much sometimes, Rebekah! :-)

    I’m glad you went with the other pants though! Good work.

    As for the “SuperMama” thing… Did you SEE SuperStar’s costume? There is no way anyone could tell her age. :-)
