Few days ago, Kathy sent out an email to all the employees, "We will have a lunch meeting on Oct 25th at noon to review the 2008 benefits. Please let me know if you will not attend. Yes, Lunch will be provided."
Well, it's been a while since we had a staff meeting, and we didn't have our annual retreat this year, either. I guess it's about time to talk about stuff, maybe there will be something about the new office. I didn't really pay attention to the "benefit-reviewing" part, though. That morning, Kathy was passing around a birthday card for Jeni. She mentioned that we'll celebrate her birthday during the lunch meeting.
To be entirely honest, I have completely forgot about the lunch meeting. After all, it was almost ten days ago when I got that two-line email. I don't really recall what the meeting was about. I am more interested in what we are going to have for lunch. All morning, I was dealing with Caltrans to get the drilling going next week. Had to do location plans with permits and followed by phone calls and fax. Things finally slowed down a little bit when the food got here.
I should've noticed the door of the marketing room was closed in the morning. I should've sensed that there is something going on when they put the food on the table just outside of David's office. Well, I didn't feel anything different when they let me get to the food first......
When I opened the conference room door, I was shocked. There was a cake on the table, and the room was full of balloons of pink and white. All the files on the cabinet were replaced with bunch of presents. It's a surprise baby shower for me!! That's when I realized... that's right, I am going to have a baby soon......

Thank you all for everything you've done!! I am sure Ashley will enjoy all the presents you've got for her. I will also let her know...
"You know, the fajitas was pretty good, too!!"
