But They Were So Pretty…

I went to Wal-Mart last night to pick up some grocery items and other random things and as I walked in the front door I spotted the prettiest miniature rose plants. They were a beautiful soft pink and so gorgeous, I couldn’t pass them up. I figured that with Mike in London this week, they would be a good Valentine’s Day treat for me while he was gone. I had the perfect spot on my desk and they would look so pretty, cheering me up throughout the day. I started to search for office plants to hire for my office, because my office is so empty and need some more plants.

That was until today, when I discovered that I am allergic to them. Every time I would go in to my office, instant stuffy nose. Leave the office for a little bit, it would all clear up. Until finally the allergy thingies grabbed ahold of me – now I just can’t breath, but my nose won’t stop running. Forget about cheering me up – they have made me miserable. The pretty pink roses have been moved to an office down the hall and hopefully the Claritin will kick in soon so I can breath again.

Rather than leave you with that lovely image, I would like to point out that Gretchen is serving up hot boobies and cool pie. Enjoy the treats!
