xhollydayx made more cupcakes, and my coworkers were the beneficiaries. Here's the email they got informing them of it.

I know. You *think* that you don't want a cupcake. You are still maintaining a tenuous grip on your New Year's Resolution to eat less fattening foods. And you want to get in the proper mindset for the "Healthiest Hylander" contest. Whatever. Let go of the unhealthy body views promulgated by Hollywood and the fashion industry. Thin is not beautiful. Do you really want to be as skinny as Kate Moss after a four day cocaine bender? Heck no. Join me in the "30+ pounds overweight and happy anyway" club. Come eat delicious, oh-so-fattening cupcakes.
Holly (aka, my wife) made them yesterday, in two tempting flavors: vanilla and blueberry. The blueberries were grown on my aunt's farm, flash frozen and delivered to Cleveland. Holly handmade the frosting with lots and lots of eggs and sugar. They even have cute frogs on the cupcake paper. You know you like cute frogs, especially when they are wrapped around delicious homemade cupcakes.
I sit overlooking reception. I've got 30+ two inch cupcakes at my desk. They should be safe for everyone to eat, unless you are vegan or have a gluten allergy. Remember, if you are too skinny the communists will win.

Disclaimer: Cupcakes are not a notable source of vitamins or minerals. Cupcakes are a major source of pure awesomeness. Cupcakes cannot be found in a jungle, even a workflow jungle. Cupcakes should be eaten as small part of a healthy diet. If you really want to be thinner, adopt a dog who will destroy every one of your possessions if they don't get 3 walks a day. Plus, dogs are cute! Scientific evidence indicates that even if you did lost all that weight you feel guilty about the chances that you'll randomly encounter Brad Pitt / Natalie Portman / (celebrity of your choice) in a bar and convince them to hop into the sack with you are minimal. So you might as well eat a cupcake. Or two. Or five.

In other work related news, my employer
has purchased 20+ acres and an office building across the street from headquarters. In addition, we leased another building very close to us which will house the daycare. Anyway, I found the comments on the thread hilarious. Yes, it's really likely that we'd move downtown and piss off the 300+ employees who live in Lorain County by making them drive an extra half an hour to work. And don't get me started on the person who manages to imply that people who take public transport are smarter, and since you can't take public transport to Westlake we can't hire the smartest people. Feh. Which ignores the coworker who took the bus from Shaker Square to Westlake every day with no problems.
