I walked into work this morning

To a box. You know the kind of box. The box that says FLOWERS on it.

Now, there are two things to consider about the arrival of this box.

1) I have never been sent flowers at work. I have been sent flowers on a couple occasions, but not in over ten years, and never, ever at work.
2) I was out on Friday, playing tourguide. So this box had been sitting here for at least three nights. I was very worried that it would be ruined when I opened it, that whatever was in it had wilted over the weekend.

When I opened it, this was inside:

with a note implicating whirled in its delivery.

It also came with lights, but I thought that might be a little much for the workplace. Maybe I should put them around my computer monitor :-P

So this has been a weird and wonderful week of mail!

The other day, I got this huge box. It was large and I was not expecting a box. Now, given the nature of my work, sometimes, getting boxes means that I’m getting a particularly zany submission. So my first reaction was “UH OH.”

But then I looked at it and it was addressed to me directly and not to “submissions editor.” And the “from” label was something about beverages. Beverages! Had I ordered something from Cocktail Kingdom and forgotten about it?

Then I noticed that it was posted from Chicago. And I remembered that karnythia had said something about sending me some mead.
