When I went back to my office and took it out of its packaging for further admiration, I discovered that the covers were either real or faux leather. In either case, they were especially fragrant and I'm not sure that an item that smells all leathery can be functional in my world. I left it out overnight in hopes that the odor will dissipate and I won't need to return it.

For those keeping track at home, Operation Cadbury Stock Up 2006 is not going very well at all. Tonight I found myself at Walgreen's frantically digging through shipping crates to find any remaining creme eggs. Only two were recovered (there are a sickening number of the false hope-inducing caramel variety around); so it looks like it's going to be a long eleven months. Luckily Easter arrives a few days earlier next year.
