I thought I was in trouble for something as I walked down that corridor and past his receptionist.

Instead the Vice President of my company wants to thank me for (details are boring) a huge accomplishment and he hands me a present.

I open it up and it is this:

That is a nice way to start the day. :D

    I just thought it was cool that he picked a John Lennon pen. He knows I am a huge music fan from my PJ framed posters in my office.
