Oh, I didn't know there was luck attached. That makes so much more sense.
Hah! I'm trying to imagine what y'all must've thought the tradition was. "Dammit! Somebody got a plastic baby in their piece! I guess that means Hopkins has the cake tomorrow."
Filing that next to, "There's a canoe with beer!" "IT'S A PIROUGE!" and "Who Dat!?!" "The Saints!" "IT'S A CHEER!" in people who didn't grow up like I did are funny.
Thanks, -t. That explains better why he went to

Pretty much, with a subtext of "Everyone must eat cake until on the verge of explosion."

Oooh, cool things, ita. Bitter and beautiful, like many Buffistas.
This design is gorgeous, and this one led me to this woman's store, where I think I want one of everything, specially the kiddie stuff.
"Evil Underwear" is a great category.
Would it be wrong to move puppet Angel to the front of my desk to scare people (and especially the children) away?
Hee. It's making the kids walk a little faster past my door. Glower Puppet Angel! Glower like the wind!
Heh -- I'd be afraid it would draw them in, looking like a toy as it does.
A friend of mine just asked if I'd babysit for her this weekend. I don't have actual plans, but I don't really feel like schlepping out there, etc. Is it wrong if I say no?
