I love both of those, though I think Tim's to you is my favorite.

I actually almost sent him that one, except I have a bad cold and didn't want to promise something I couldn't deliver. So the balls one saved me from that.

I just sent Jon "I'm in love and not afraid to annoy the shit out of everyone!"

I love that one! I was going to post it on FB or something (to, indeed, annoy the shit out of everyone), but I thought I might get shanked for it.

Dan loves ice cream, so I got him a 3 pints of shmancy Christopher Elbow ice cream after work: Venezuelan Spice, Peanut Butter Flake and Chocolate Cherry Bourbon.

I got a pretty bouquet of spring-y flowers and he made me an owl card-drawing and posted it on FB.

We would have gone out to dinner, but I was trapped in Grading Hell this weekend.

No, I will model the red lace ... thing you are clutching desperately so you can "see what it looks like."

Groan. This was a part of our training when I worked at Victoria's Secret in grad school. Although thanks to that job, 9 times out of 10, I can eyeball a woman's bust and call her bra size.

Make sure there are no other attendant symptoms like disorientation, lethargy or disturbed eating/eliminating/sleeping patterns.

If you are also sure she has adequate water (and is drinking it, which might not happen unless you are around), then it should be okay.

sj, that is atrocious.

bonny, I am seriously impressed by how calm you managed to remain.

First day of training with new group went well, no major mishaps. No minor mishaps, either, except that someone had to be driven to an urgent last minute court thingy, of the kind that gets a warrant put out if you don't show up. But it all worked out just fine.

I am totally wiped. Just had better-than-brie on ciabatta, and some carrot sticks, and next up? Moar cookie dough. That's what's UP.
