There are really no new ideas, so I don’t feel too guilty about stealing them. I try to remember to give credit where credit is due, though.

Today is my friend’s birthday (Happy birthday, Leah!) and when I phoned her to sing to her this morning (you’re welcome!) she asked me where her “Bag O’ Shit” is? You see, back in my university days we lived both together and down the hall from each other. We had nothing to speak of, being students, so we gave each other paper bags full of random crap. Candy, paper clips, a facecloth…whatever we could scrounge up. It always made us roar with laughter, and we loved it.

So when I read this today it made me smile and think of Leah. And then I thought, “Hey, I can steal that!”

So that’s what I’m doing. Sending some random friends a little bit of cheer that they can save for a crappy day.

I love it!
