My coworker, who has yet to read Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, plugged her ears and she shut the door to her office when she heard me say, ( just in case this can be construed as a spoiler )
My coworker told me a cute anecdote:
A friend of hers was throwing a baby shower. When she had to send out the invitations, she realized she was out of stamps. She went down to the post office to buy some. The lady at the counter gave her the choice of the American flag or stamps with pictures of puppies and kittens. Since the stamps were for the baby shower invitations, the friend thought the fuzzy wuzzies would be better. After buying the stamps, she got a good look at them: the stamps are from the ASPCA with words "neuter" and "spade" in big print, in the borders of the kitty and puppy pictures. She thought the irony was funny enough to send the invitations out with the ASPCA stamps.The anecdote's fitting since today is "bring your child to work day." This sort of thing reminds me that kids are always cuter when they're someone else's.
