I sent flowers to a (very) perfect stranger today.
I doubt if I'll ever see her again, but she served me in a store the other day, and completely made my day with her manner and attitude.

I sent them anonymously because I'm shy :/ .

I feel pretty good about doing it...a nice gesture. I hope it doesn't freak her out!

Maybe if you're nice to me, I'll send you flowers. Maybe.

Random acts of kindness; nothing better...I was just thinking about that as I was singing "Don't Pay The Ferryman" to myself..

5. YOU BASTARD!!!
I had to listen to the new System of a Down three times today to get rid of Chris Fucking DeBurgh.

And now he's back.

6. Maybe I'll send you flowers!
Maybe not!

I'm kind of a tease that way.

8. I mean this in the best possible way
It doesn't sound like you.

I'm glad to see that there is still some joy inside.

10. No, it doesn't sound like me at all.
Maybe it was sarcasm.

Maybe they're of the rare and pungent "ironicus dalias" variety.

Maybe I'm just a big ol' sack of sugar.

Maybe I'm just really, really horny.

Maybe you'll get a new crown if you're nice.

14. She was so darned nice...
Edited on Thu Jun-09-05 11:10 PM by CanuckAmok
...that means only one thing:

She has been repressing the bad girl for too long!

11. So, next step is going back in there and claiming responsibility, right?
You know it'll drive her crazy not knowing. Go in, talk her up, see what happens ;)

13. No way!
Not with my big fat nose!

I'll get a friend to go in to talk with her, and pretend he's me.

That'll totally work!

15. What kinda flowers?
Just wondering... you said " I hope it doesn't freak her out!"... so it made me curious? Red roses? Asian Lillies? Tulips?

16. Are you Morg or Imorg?
Your gender is undeclared in your profile. Was this a same sex move?

B-)
