My coworkers know me so well...we are discussing our secret santa x-mas and they just announced that what would make me happiest is a gift card to Hastings are Waldenbooks. And they are right.
Sadly, they are also shocked that I do not love Happily N'Ever After, proof of the eternal belief that I value elements over execution(the movie had good moments, but killed itself for me right at the start by saying the balance of good and evil meant good always won.) The fact that I only like the first Shrek movie should have clued them in than it takes more than just a new take on fairytales to make me love something.
ETA: (ok, seriously, how is my favorite quote or people I find to be influential supposed to help buy me a good christmas gift?)
ETA 2: Dear cleaning person: DO NOT UT YOUR WET CLOTH NEAR BY BOOK AND DO NOT PICK UP MY BOOK< WIPE THE DESK AND PUT MY BOOK BACK ON THE WET DESK WITHOUT EVEN WARNING ME SO I CAN MOVE IT!!! *hyperventilates*
