so yesterday i was at my desk and some intern brought in an absolutely gorgeous bouquet of BIRTHDAY FLOWERS!
aren’t they lovely? they were accompanied by a heartfelt, slightly alarming but very encouraging note signed only “me.” I was like??????? Mystery????? Secret admirer????? I checked with friends and parents, but nobody copped to it. I spent all day happily wondering about this, until I got home and checked my email and found (you guessed it) a delivery confirmation. For an order received at 1am on a Wednesday in December. Yes: it was me. I am the secret admirer, probably riding off a wine-fuzzed crying jag on a work night a month after the election, and this is where I decided to put that energy. and then i IMMEDIATELY forgot because my attention span can be measured in negative digits.
At first I was like “well that’s disappointing,” but then i thought, Actually, this is the best? Thanks, sad drunk me! Way to pay it forward (to yourself!) I love you, too.
ps I gotta share this card with u guys. I can’t believe I didn’t realize AT ONCE that it was from me because it’s just so OTT deranged in its affirmational enthusiasm:
POWERFUL! LUMINOUS! MAGNETIC!!! CAPABLE AND DESERVING OF GREATNESS! ME LOVE ME!!! HAPPME BIRTHMEDAYME!!!!!!
