This has been the absolute longest week in history... ever...
It has been non stop holiday lunches and brunches. I have received 3 invites from my work alone. One was for a company-wide picnic in the botanical park. I didn't go. Picnics are not moments meant to be shared with co-workers whom you do not even wish to socialise at work. Picnics are for getting drunk and laying naked in the grass.
The other two work invites for a dinner and brunch, respectively. They both started out right, but ended with the same sentence:
"ALL STAFF WHO ATTEND MUST ASSIST IN CLEANING UP AFTERWORDS."
I won't be RSVP'ing to either of those.
How many Secret Santa's can one do in a year before you realise a total of $300 has been spent buying presents for people whose names you pulled out of hat?
I was totally in the holiday spirit on Monday. I pranced around placing fabulous sparkling baubles on plants, lamps and puppies while singing "We Need a Little Christmas" from Mame. Now it is Thursday and the only holiday spirit I want is vodka with three green and red olives.
