Send flowers instead. More classy and they can sit on the desk for a while longer.

Are you in the doghouse? Then maybe.
Send flowers, then promise to show her a good time.

i'm not asking for me, but as a general question. a co-worker's gf stopped by today to give him a happy birthday balloon, and now it's hovering over his cube. i'm thinking it's a little too much at the work place.

LOL... yeah, that is a bit much and some might find it distracting in certain work environments.

Yeah - it's great, go over to a different department (if you work at a LARGE corporation) on Valentine's day - make sure you talk to the girl that didn't get flowers. . . not that I'd ever do such a thing. . . but . . . you know. . .
