Special Delivery! posted on July 25, 2007 11:30 AM by rethwyll.
So as the date of my baby shower draws ever nearer (at which time I will attempt to wedge my 9-month-pregnant self into steerage for a 45-minute flight across Lake Michigan, during which I will STILL no doubt need to visit the powder room 11 times), I keep running across things that I want people to give me. If it weren't so rude as to give Miss Manners a massive aneurysm, I would buy the darned things myself and shove them into the hands of the nearest relative, screaming "OMG GIVE ME THIS AND YOU ARE MY FAVORITE SECOND COUSIN TWICE-REMOVED FOR *LIFE*!" Like this Baby Bunch Clothes Bouquet. It's BABY CLOTHES. In the shape of a FLOWER BOUQUET. To borrow a word that my mother reserves strictly for baby shower gift commentating, it's PRECIOUS.
Since I save my screaming at relatives for major holidays (and since my second cousins twice-removed are all safely out of gift shoving range anyway), I'll just have to be content with weeping quietly and wishing that I knew people as awesome (and classy and humble) as I, since they would have already purchased this for me. (And if any family and friends are reading this, it's the hormones talking, I swear.)
