My work Christmas party is today at lunch!

It really just shows how much money the big boss has. It is at his lakefront mansion (one of his mansions, he has another one here and had one in New Orleans). The food we are being served is $100 per plate. I don't eat $100 worth of food. :o I will try my best to enjoy. Luckily I can go home after I eat!

1. 100 bucks a plate?

That better be a whole lotta lobster, porterhouse steak and crab. Otherwise that's a whole lotta trips to the buffet counter. ;-)

2. I know! But the thing is that we probably won't have

lobster or steak. Not sure what we are having. I guess it includes the waiter's serving the food to us like we are in a restaurant. It is catered by the country club which probably counts for the cost!!

5. Well have fun!

6. Thanks! I'll do my best!

:P

3. I hope it's as cool as my office Christmas party

where the new secretary staggered up to me and said, "you know, I would drink my own piss if it would get me drunk." Hadn't expected to hear that from a nice Republican Christian young lady.

Let it shine, Shell Beau, let it shine.

4. OMG!!

It probably won't be a fun as yours!! :o :)

7. The secret is to get there early

and start slamming vodka tonics on an empty stomach.

You can do it, Duffy Moon!

8. All they will have is wine, although, that can probably do the trick!

9. Would it be crass to ask for a doggie bag?

Or just stuff some rolls, etc in your over-sized purse :)

Our Christmas party is tonight too. Our's usually start around 8 and get going around 3am. Those left standing usually order pizza around that time as the good food has already been put away and mimosas are served promptly at 8am. Architects know how to P-A-R-T-Y! I will be taking the candid photos of the drunkards this year (quite different being on the other end this time). I don't know how we'll top a few years ago with Owner of firm passed out on his couch and another principal of the firm shaking his butt in Owner's face for all posterity while grinning like a jackass. Oh good times.....good times........

10. Wow! Yours sounds fun!

Mine is a bunch of stuffy people all gathered in one room! Blah!
