When I came back to my desk from lunch today, I had a lovely surprise waiting for me – flowers!  For me!  On MY desk! 

I’ve never had flowers at work before, unless of course I brought them myself.  I asked Calvin if he knew who had left them there  since he sits in the cubicle right next to me.  He said, “No, but everyone else has been coming by and asking me the same thing!”  I had to laugh knowing that I was suddenly the talk of the Quadigon.  (The Quadigon is what we call our little cube farm.  It’s a square addition to the main building and we all joke that we aren’t good enough to work in the Pentagon so they stuck us in a Quadigon.)  Anyway, I opened up the little envelope to read the note and found that the flowers were from my co-worker Steve.   Along with the flowers, he had included a very sweet note. 

Needless to say, this is part of the reason why I enjoy my job.  I have the BEST co-workers ever!!  :-)
