Sweetness follows

Things are a little less dramatic here today. No big gushes of blood, which is a nice change. Hopefully this trend will continue (*knocks wood*). I would feel a LOT better if so.
What was supposed to be dinner with a couple of coworkers apparently has become a big going-away party for me. I found this out because Coworker Javier doesn't understand the concept of 'secret' and said to me this morning, "I won't be able to come to the bar with you tonight!" Whoops. I hope it's not a BIG THING because I really don't intend to stay terribly long. The couch misses me when I'm away too long.
One of my families insisted that I take some fancy Somalian headscarves home as a gift. I tried not to take them (they don't have a lot of money and well, what am I going to do with them?) but she insisted and I did. I suppose it was very sweet but I always feel awkward when families that are struggling feel like they have to give me things.
Speaking of nice things, one of my coworkers bought me a pizza for lunch last week. It was really sweet! I was just about to go buy lunch and she came in with a pizza and said, "This is for you!" So sweet. <3 <3 <3 Also, today Coworker Krissie put a new note on my GI Joe man (Coworker Funk stuck him on my desk months ago with a note that said "Marry me") that said something about how I can't leave her. And Coworker Elaine brought me a newspaper article about Northampton. Elaine is about 60 years old and very nice, and I think she gets this parental pleasure working with us "young people."
I don't really want to leave my favorite coworkers. At all. I want to take them all with me!
One of my moms told me she loved me today. So cute! Of course, she is currently on vacation in Miami so she probably loves everyone. Ha ha.
