Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Our holiday party is going to be here--the whole second floor! [link]

We're having a holiday party in a couple of weeks. Secret Santa. Angel Trees. Pretty much mandatory attendance and participation.

Due to a bad experience at a previous place, I'm opting out of Secret Santa.

I may call in sick that day.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

As I mentioned before, our evening holiday party was cancelled, which suits me fine - my time. Now we are having some sort of casual lunch brought it during the work day, and I think the company is buying everyone $50 gift cards to awl-mart ( p-tooie). Guess I'll buy one round of groceries there and be done.

So today is Gotcha Day and with the grades and the lying and all I wasn't gonna do anything, but go get mac wings for dinner, but then he misses the bus, does not call for over an hour, doesn't answer his phone that whole time, throws attitude and is generally being a pita - so no. nothing. happy day.

I'm just getting on a bus home now and I still have troubleshooting to do tonight, which needs to happen before cocktails. If anyone asks why I didn't come to the party, I legitimately can tell them I had to work late.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My big department is doing a potluck lunch, and I think last year that's where the Yankee Swap or whatever happened. My team is trying to do a get together that was going to be at my house, but I think the scheduling isn't actually going to work out, so maybe we'll just go out to lunch.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Idly watching Peter Pan. So far, Allison Williams is much better cast than Carrie Underwood was.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Interesting. I'd been planning to avoid it strictly based on how badly cast Carrie Underwood was. Maybe I'll give it a look.

You can at least watch the beginning and listen to Kelli O'Hara sing.

I did have a few anxious moments when Peter Pan first started flying. I'm pretty sure Allison Williams almost hit a wall.

Yeah, our holiday party will cost $25/person, plus you can spend up to $25 for the white elephant gift. I'm not sure I'll go...
