Today there was a surprise in the mailbox.
There was a book.
This was funny because I haven't ordered any books.
Then I saw the return address.
Bob stood there dumbfounded as I tore into the package.
After all, Bob had already said 'I see you have a book'.
'I didn't order a book, it's from Rosie!!'
And TADA!!!
A book that brought tears to my eyes and a high pitched squeeing sound up from my lungs.
An Anne Stuart Harlequin First signed by none other than the Goddess of Tortured Heroes and the Heroines who have the bad luck of tripping over them!
Bob stood back and said with awe, 'You have such great friends. None of mine send me stuff from Home Depot.'
I do have such great friends. Truly blessed I am.
Rosie the Book Angel had struck again!
Great Big Burly Bear Hugs and a Gazillion Thank Yous!

Rosie was getting books for bloggers, I was getting books for coworkers. Two RWAs in a row, and this is what we've done.....
Happy Reading Cindy!
That's so nice!!
Isn't she awesome?!? :P LOL :)
LOL, if Bob wants friends to send him stuff from Home Depot, he has to make sure they go to the Home Depot convention LOL :P
YAY for you!
Sula - yep, she rocks!
Wendy - you guys are so good to think of others. I think I would just go brain dead.

SL, fess up, we love searching out the books and authors for our friends. I'm so glad you liked it Cindy.
Rosie: Well....yeah, there is that. Plus we tend to score mad props :) My one coworker was so happy to get a signed JAK and a signed Jayne Castle this year. She lurves JAK in all her guises......
Wow, that is awesomely cool. Lucky girl.
C2 - you said it!
Rosie - You guys are too sweet. You're going to ruin your reps ;)
ReneeW - very lucky!
Cindys
Having been with Rosie for the past two years, I KNOW she gets more of a kick in getting books for others then she does for herself. She makes such a terrific book fairy doesn't she??
