rktso, my place of employment is having a "chinese auction" * think white elephant
last year when i questioned the game's name, i was told to shut up and stop being so sensitive.
that was under a slightly more forgiving regime.
i gave a chinese tea or dish set of some sort, procured in chinatown.
this year, i think i still want to participate, but i don't know what to give.
gift item needs to be in the $15-20 range, NOT to exceed $20.
random things to consider:
*i'm not sure if everyone participating will be over the age of 21.
*in addition to being the Crazy one (la loquilla), the Liberal one, the Sensitive one, the Non-straight one, the Healthy Eater, and the Feminist, i'm also the White Girl from Wisconsin.
*the love between my coworkers and myself is less than notorious. (for those of you recently tuning in.)
*i work near the wholesale district = cheap bulk goods + perfumery.
*i have a penchant for being obnoxious at times.
[Poll #404116]
so, i ask you.... what should this dear, sweet, worker bee give as a gift?

- each person who brings in a (wrapped) gift draws a number from a hat
- the person with number 1 picks the first gift and then unwraps it.
- the person with number 2 has the choice of either picking a gift, or taking it from person 1
- if person 1's gift is taken, ze chooses another gift and unwraps that.
- the person 3 can choose from the wrapped selection, or take from 1 or 2
- the game continues until all gifts are drawn
- the higher the number, the better chance you have of snagging the primo gift
