Ugh...no one is donating to the office toy drive

I am in charge of it, but no one is buying any toys. I take that back...one person bought three small gifts. I bought two. This is bad...really bad. In the past the box was full before the end of the first day! More than 100 people work in my office now.

Hopefully tomorrow will be better. I am just sad looking at this big, empty box :(.

2. Maybe...

I donated a bunch of art supplies, which are probably safe. And because that is always what I asked for when I was a kid...

3. I am donating a cool kids' book to mine....

Except that the box isn't available yet. This year, I am boycotting toy-buying because of all the lead scares.
