True that. And to be honest, they weren't really "co"workers - my ex-boss, my current boss, and one of the children's librarians were the culprits. So there you go.

You've got a point.

I've threatened in the past to do a formal dress dinner just for couples friends of mine around VD, for fun, to celebrate coupledom and the people who are able to make it work. When single friends of mine heard of the idea, I got some raised eyebrows (not that I thought anyone was offended, but obviously, not being invited to something always sucks no matter the circumstances). Seeming to snub the loose cannons was an aspect I didn't even consider when coming up with the idea.

It's ok anyway, since the idea never got off the ground and probably never will. Maybe '09?
