Who has a photoshoot to be on the posters in the windows at Whole Foods?

Yeah, that's right. Which more than makes up for the fact that everyone at work apparently gets a birthday cake except me and the married girl.

!!!!!!

Do you get to hold up any inviting produce?

[identity profile] rm.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 07:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Two-bite things, actualy I think.

[identity profile] schpahky.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Two happy bites for your birthday! And many more!

Oh dear. Now not only will I be known for standing in bookstores, jumping up and down and pointing at books and squeeing "look I know her/him and there's the new book," but at Whole Foods they'll see me pointing and bouncing at their posters. Now they only know me as the chick who comes in with the guy in the kilt and is addicted to their stuffed mushrooms...

It may just be local... I'm not sure if it's store-specific, or local or regional or what.

How very cool!

If it makes you feel better, I got no cake and celebrated my mandatory department birthday luncheon 2 months late.

Was it your birthday recently and I missed it?

[identity profile] rm.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 07:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, like I don't care about the office thing, it's just the principle of the thing.

But you didn't miss it,as it's today.

BAH!! What a way to keep it hushed! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

[identity profile] saltbox.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Whoa! Lotsa birthdays this week! One friend in DC yesterday, and today D, too. Happy!

Thank you!

That's a nice birthday present! Beats a cruddy cake.

Felicitations of the day, Racheline. :)

Thank you much.

Happy birthday!

I shall keep an eye out for the posters; a WF is the nearest grocery store to my apartment.

[identity profile] rm.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 07:59 pm (UTC)(link)
it may just be local or regional, but I'll keep folks posted.

What a less-than-subtle way of dropping a hint. Well, happy birthday!

[identity profile] rm.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
I was so not dropping a hint. I just ran out of energy to bitch about being the ugly stepchild ofmy office.

But thank you!

[identity profile] warhol.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 08:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Keep in mind that it was the ugly stepchild who won Prince Charming in the end! Oh, wait, no..... she was the beautiful true child, wasn't she? The ugly stepsisters got their toes whacked off.

Happy Bday!

We have the mandatory office sponsored 'oh look we remembered and got you a cake' thing here, which I suppose is slightly better than getting ignored, but being as it's completely perfunctory, it's not exactly anything to get excited about.

Hope you end up with a great day, though!

Birthday! Of the happy variety!

[identity profile] graene.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 09:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Think of it this way - your birthday is on Rosh Hashannah, so many good omens about the posters for the start of a new wondrous cycle. As for your office - well, they've got ten days to make it right before official notice is taken, and taken seriously.

Have a fabulous time celebrating the new year in your life tonight. To a year of Health and Happiness!

No birthday cakes, here. If you're lucky the admin remembers that it's your birthday and they pass around a card behind your back. If you're super lucky, your coworkers are cool enough to get their own card. :)

Regardless, Happy Birthday!

Oh hell yes!

Congrads and such! I'll be watching my local store(s) for it.

What wonderful news for your birthday!!! Congrats! Much w00ting will be done from this coast for you. :)

Happy Birthday!
I hope the Whole Foods thing is national. I want to see it at a store near me!

Thank you!

I think it's just local, but I'll totally scan it and post it.

[identity profile] nisaa.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Happy Birthday!!
Yes, by all means, scan and post the Whole Foods ad when you have a copy of it.

Thank you!

For all the whole foods everywhere? Cause I will so go downtown and steal one of those signs!

[identity profile] rm.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Just NYC I think, but what a funny thought!

[identity profile] 00goddess.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
If they do get to WFs down herein Texas, I will at the very least take a picture for you :)

[identity profile] tsarina.livejournal.com 2005-10-05 02:42 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm a pro at stealing signs. I had a lot of practice in Prague.

At my former place of employment, everyone except for me got a birthday cake AND a going away party. I got neither.

Many happy returns of the day and congrats on the shoot! Mmm, Whole Foods...
