smurfs at work

I had a fun day at work today.. :) .. We are doing the secret pal thing(you know you get to buy little gifts for a coworker without them knowing who it is from) and I found a little workaholic smurf on my desk today. :hi5: I bursted out laughing when I saw it and received only blank looks.. :shock: ...

hours later somebody brought me another gift from my secret pal this time a computer smurf in box... :-D
So, now, of course, little not so little Miss smurfysmurf went into long explanation about what is a super smurf and what is not and how not to make fun of them (somebody actually said the pose of the computer smurf was not very decent :-? and thought the workaholic was s....let's not get there :eek: :???: )
of course all of my explanations drew even more blank stares... I think they all now know that I have officially lost my mind :crazy:

I haven't posted pictures of the smurfs, because they are at work and BETTER BE THERE WHEN I GO BACK TOMORROW :angry: (sometimes stuff vanishes :bolt: )

I really did appreciate the smurfs though from my secret Pal, because as I mentioned before, smurfs are not easy to find in Tennessee :banghead:

Nice to hear there is at least some decent people at your work Maureen.....although they seem a bit overly critical of some of the little blue guys......they might be the ones who have a few issues in my opinion.

Yay...free smurfs :D

ooohhh Staci, :-D

I would love for you to move down here to Tennessee....... :idea:

Your hubby could still have his Halloween house.... Tennesseans are quite haunting themselves..... :witch:

I am not a Tennessean :) (not yet that is) :)

I would be willing to change jobs too if your work could offer me more forum time than I get at my current job.

So far every other employer has laughed at me down here....then again, as they say....'only in America' so you never know. :D

that is the funny thing....another coworker had asked me a week ago where to find smurfs for her niece and I told her about e-bay and some of the ebay stores and told her I would bring her smurfs to show her and went into this long explanation (I was so thrilled about a new collector).Little Miss Scatterbrain here forgot to bring the smurfs though, which turned out to be a good thing..Yesterday she admitted, she had made the story up because my secret pal had asked her to ask me where to get smurfs :) :) :)
I would be willing to change jobs too if your work could offer me more forum time than I get at my current job.
:???: that's a big No..... only few have world wide Internet access (I am one of them though) but actually going there...well.....let's just say, I would suddenly have even less money to buy smurfs :???:

That was way-thoughtful. What a sweet person! Some folks would just buy you a coffee mug and be done with it. :coffee:
