Sully777 is out & asked me to start today's thread. It's my first time hosting this so please be gentle.
Any good office Christmas party stories you'd like to share?
Whoops! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_9LTQVd_Xo
No go & be silly!!
Hi Millee...hmmmm, Christmas party stories? The bruises are healing quite nicely. :)
1. Go to the grocery store.
2. Purchase one or more tubes of ready-made cookie dough.
3. Go home.
4. Unwrap the cookie dough, carefully folding the wrapper inside-out and placing it at the bottom of your trash can. Better yet, bury it in the backyard.
5. Cut off a portion of the cookie dough and smear it on a mixing bowl and spoon. Display bowl and spoon prominently so everyone can see your "work."
6. Slice cookie dough, place on cookie sheets and bake in the oven. But don't use a microwave because that won't work. I just know this...I've never actually tried it. I mean, you'd have to be pretty silly to stick cookie dough in the microwave, only to watch it melt and run together into one giant patty which explodes in three minutes. I've never seen this happen...I'm just supposing.
7. Place 'homemade' cookies on a Christmas platter...let cool.
8. Leave cookies out for everyone to enjoy.
Late to this party.
Appropriate thread - our office party is today.
LOL!
I like that :)
That's me....I should just go ahead and stuff things in my pockets, because that's where they're settling after I eat them.
Tis the season to wear sweat pants, right? ;o)
For me, the holidays is actually when I lose weight, go figure. I've lost 5lbs already. Although the season isn't over yet. :(
LOL!

Employee Christmas Party MEMO

There will be lots of spiked eggnog and a small band will play traditional carols...feel free to sing-along. And don't be surprised if our CEO shows up dressed as Santa Claus to light the Christmas tree.
Exchanging gifts among employees can be done at this time. Please remember to keep gifts to the agreed $10 limit.
Merry Christmas to you and yours,

What NOT to Get Your Dog for Christmas
1. A CD of cats meowing popular Christmas songs.
2. A chew toy with the head already gnawed off by his canine brother who chewed his way into the gift box around the 15th of the month.
3. A chew toy shaped like a shoe which he is immediately going to confuse with the right sneaker of your favorite pair.
4. Central A/C for his Dogloo when you're still using individual wall units that are barely up to cooling a small close-size area in your house.
5. Anything Garfield.
6. A remote control for the refrigerator door.
7. A knitted pink sweater that makes your macho doberman look like a poodle.
8. A deluxe pre-packaged treat-filled Christmas stocking that's large enough for you to use as a sleeping bag.
9. Doggie antlers when your near-sighted hunting relatives will be spending the holidays with you.
10. A stuffed toy dog with an angel's halo as a hint as to what he has to do to get more presents next year.
11. A doggie door between you and the suspicious butcher next door.
12. An audition for a diet dog food commercial where they feed him so much during retakes that he actually gains weight.
13. A piece of jewelry featuring a ceramic dog of his breed for you to wear.
14. His own i-pets.com credit card.
15. A cat.
I've lost 5lbs already

Hey Naj! How ya doing? I recently joined a gym to get rid of my excess "baggage". I'm amazed at all the people who rush to get front door parking. You wouldn't believe the line of people behind me.
