jr conlin's ink stained banana

Every year someone at my company puts out a few tables worth of craft materials for Valentine's Day.

There are red, white and pink sheets of construction paper, stickers, markers, and everything else one would need to craft that very special valentine for that very special someone.

In all the various definitions of "special".

Mind you, i work at a web based media company, so the idea of putting together a fairly professional looking web page that shows your undying love in rounded corners along with a custom, download-able CD mix of love songs and high-def video, would probably be the first choice for most of the more creative types here, but every year the table returns.

and this is why i shouldn't be let near it again.
