random

in my job (as erin and steph will attest), people give you craap. sometimes it's good craap, sometimes bad, and sometimes just strange. it took four hotels but i have myself a complete bed and bath set, with a pillow, pillowcases, sheets, and a terry cloth bathrobe... okay that's a digression. the point of this post is to catalog random gift day.





to the left, godiva chocolate from a hotel in baltimore encouraging me to 'try baltimore.' chocolate is a good motivator.

in the middle, 'architectural' clips and magnets from my co-worker who saw them and 'just thought of me.' yes, i do actually have co-workers like that.

and on the right, from nemacolin woodlands, the five star resort in pa that we are about to lay a bunch of mula on...(drumroll please)...soap. oh but not any soap mind you, bird-shaped soap.
