Surprise or Shock!

During the last 12 months, I sent flowers to my sisters at work on their birthdays.
No, I’m not being sweet or loving. Nor considerate cause they won’t be getting flowers from someone else. (Hey I’m not being bitchy, this is the sad truth!)
I do it because it is fun to embarrass them.

Receiving flowers at the office announces that you have some occasion to celebrate and that someone remembered you.
This will interest your colleagues who will come and ask you what’s the occasion and maybe even try to celebrate it at the office (there is always someone who wants any reason to party!).
It could also start some rumors and the gossipers will have a field day.
Then if they are really nice flowers, you don’t want to leave them at the office, cause one: there is not enough space on your desk and two: you don’t want your colleagues to keep grilling you about them for the whole week!
So you will have to go to your car carrying these flowers.
And that means going down elevators, walking in buildings and crossing streets, while people are gaping at you and the flowers and smirking knowingly!!

It is really embarrassing to the bashful.

My long awaited for birthday is on Saturday. I was calm because I’m off on Saturdays and my sisters, who vowed revenge, can not do anything about it.

Well they sure can’t do anything on Saturday, so they united against me and sent it today!!
It being a basket of flowers (20 red roses, 20 peach roses and 10 white roses adorned with lilies, orchids and birds of paradise) and Godiva chocolates.
It’s really big! It’s really lovely! And I’m upset!!


I was not embarrassed that much.

Oh well.. just a bit!

And no I’m not upset that the flowers turned to be from my sisters and not from a secret admirer! Knowing my luck any admirer, if such existed, would be so cheap to even send a single rose!


I’m actually upset, cause I have already many things to carry with me, like my laptop, the eight printed presentations that I’m supposed to read over the weekend, and my bag!
And I’m wearing my highest heels today!!

And now I have a huge basket to carry!!

What a pain!!

I have no option but to leave something at the office!









Of course I’ll leave the laptop and the presentations!!
I’m not going to miss walking down to my car with a basket of flowers!!
I don’t get flowers everyday you know!!



Till Sunday….
Drive safely and really get out of my way…. Cause when I’m back I’ll be ONE year older!!!
