My brand new colleague, who we shall call Skipper, is a very happy person. Even at early o'clock in the mornings when, as anyone who knows me knows is not my finest time o day.
Today, as I went by her desk to collect my mail, she looked up at me with a big beaming smile and gushed, "Oh don't you just LOVE celebrating VD?"
To which I replied. " Anyone who owns up to celebrating VD is in my books, a profoundly sick and twisted individual. The same applies for if they're celebrating Valentine's Day, which is perhaps what you are talking about?"
In fairness, she was warned about the pre-coffee me. It was in the orientation package.

Hey you stranger :)
I wish someone would have said that nauseatingly sweet line in an annoyingly upbeat voice to me just so I could have shot em down.
I know, I know... stranger indeed! But I'm back.... at least... I hope so!
