the office burns down

I'm so glad Melissa commented so I could see just how bad things really are. at this point, i wish i never even tried to tell the stupid poinsettia story, but now i'm too far into this pit of bad joke despair that i feel i have to try and explain it all.

So every year around Christmas, my company buys poinsettias for most everyone. They look like this:

Well Don was leaving for vacation and decided to play a joke on Cathy and ask her to water his plant. The joke was going to be when she walked in to this office with a watering can, she would see this:

so really it was Don's joke on Cathy. He did that to his own plant and was not seriously wanting her to water it.

this is what happens when i try to blog twice in one month. it's just too much pressure.
