West Loop, Chicago
Every year my parents send me flowers on my birthday. This year my birthday is on a Friday, but for some reason I had a feeling that I’d be getting them on Thursday, and I did! I could just imagine my mom reasoning that if they were delivered on Friday that I wouldn’t have that much time to enjoy them in the office before taking them home.
I was just looking at the flowers from previous years. It’s cool how every year the flowers are so different. See 2005, 2004, 2003, and 2002.

I just like knowing what your office looks like! I always picture everyone emailing in generic offices all day. You can imagine me in sweat shorts in my “office” at home. Not quite as glamorous.
Pretty flowers, too. Go mom!

Your office looks like it’s a Hollywood set. Everything is so neat and organized and colorful.

16 mom // Sep 15, 2006 at 11:22 am
is the carpet green? Might be my old terminal, but looked like green floor and gold walls.

What’s classic about your mother emailing 4 times is that she hit ’send’, but wasn’t quite satisfied that the mail was sent, so hit ’send’ again to make sure. But there isn’t really an outward appearance that it really was sent, and thought she should hit ’send’ just to make sure.
It reminds me of the America’s Funniest Video of the old man in the tux wishing the newlyweds luck at their reception. You know the video style where the videographer walks around the reception getting people to talk, and they end up repeating the same well wishes over and over? Well, you couldn’t hear this one guy very well. It was obvious by looking at him. He held the mic in his hand, and near his mouth, but it was upside down.
Rachelle’s Mom: I’m laughing WITH you. No offense. Only the cuteness that is ‘mom’.
