Where I Receive And Throw in the Trash Promotional Pens

Got 4, count them 1,2,3,4 blue, promotional pens.  I will not tell you from who coz I don't want them to sue me for ruining their reputation.

Actually, my household got 4 blue, promotional pens.  Two of the members of my household are too young to be buyers of anything.  First strike.

But that's not the worst of it.  The worst of it is that these promotional pens are really cheap.  They don't write, they scratch.  So, I gave them to my daughters to play with.  That was around 1 o'clock.  At about 2, they gave them back to me: neither the dolls nor Teddy Bear nor Whiskers like them.

The whole thing has caused me grave emotional damage.  I think I shall sue them.  I want $40 million dollars for my hurt feelings.  I deserve better than cheap pens. 

I think someone should make it up to me.  Send me a personalized Ferrari, any Ferrari (as long as it's new) and I promise everybody in my world will see your logo.  Oh, heck, I'll take any promotional product as long as it's quality, even a promotional USB flash drive (which I will never use but always mean to).

Things Happen

First, the funnies.  Actually, not really funny.  Someone said, "Sweet justice!" But that's not it either.

Bank of America served foreclosure papers on a couple who did not have a mortgage with Bank of America.  The couple counter sued, won, foreclosed on Bank of America.  Yup.  They showed up with a sheriff and a moving van to a Bank of America branch to take desks and computers to the tune of the judgement against Bank of America.

Because, like so many other foreclosed upon, Bank of America had no money to pay!

Sunday Morning Work

You ever think about personalized water bottles?  I have to.  Right now.  I'm supposed to be working on a marketing campaign that involves personalized water bottles.  But it's Sunday morning and I don't feel like it, so I thought I'd take 3 minutes to create a post.  You know, recharge.

You, who have never thought about personalized water bottles don't know it, but they're a great thing.  If you own or run a business. 

Enough about bottles.  My daughters were looking forward to their favorite cousin's visit, scheduled for noon.  The cousin text me she can't make it: her sinuses are doing something they're not supposed to.

I've never head sinus problems, so I don't get it.  I know they can hurt, but till they hurt me it won't be the same.

Anyway, her non-presence forces me to do change plans for today, do something entertaining with my kids.  And they've started to be quite demanding when it comes to entertainment.
