Terese's birthday was last week. Everyone wave at Terese! Yoo Hoo, Terese! Happy Birthday!
(Notice my restraint in referring to a particular person's age?)
I always enjoy buying birthday presents, but this particular shopping trip was especially enjoyable. Because I had a theme. I LOVE theme presents.
I had decided that Terese's workspace was far too......plain. Mundane. Boring. Blah. Aha! I had my theme: items to bling up her desk. So I headed over to one of those big discount stores. I plopped myself onto one of their scooters and began to cruise the store.
I knew I was really onto something when I came across this:
Yessssss! A bling-y gold tone Swingline stapler. And I couldn't believe my luck when THIS was right next to the stapler:
Gold scissors! Brilliant!
I thought the weiner dog tape dispenser was a bit much.
One can't be too flashy, after all. .::sniffing haughtily::.
I picked up some gold-tone file clips and metallic toned Sharpies. But I thought this gift still needed something to add a little punch. Hmmm.....
I was circling the store in search of that special item that would coordinate the overall effect. When I spotted a necklace somewhat like this, I knew I had my answer. I needed to bling out Terese, too.
The one I chose for T had much bigger beads and was far more shiny. Ooooooo.
I made her promise that she would use each and every part of her fabulous gift on her next workday. I think I'll make a surprise visit to be certain that she does.
Oh, boy! Now I can start
