"I think he thought I saw something crawling on the ground or something," she laughed. "He was like, 'What's wrong with you?'"
Richardson said the prize came at the perfect time: just weeks before her 60th birthday.
"This is a very nice early birthday present," Richardson said.

"I'm only a few years from retirement so this is very nice to have," she said. "I'm just glad to be here."
