Post #113: Xmas Parties

So its Xmas party season...... and everyone is gathering together for bad sweater parties ..... and white elephant exchanges.... and dress up like an elf for the day and party (or maybe that's just me)......  At my work.... I get to look forward to SantaCon where 100s of drunken Santas will converge on my bar all at once. Leaving naughty wrapped presents like kids letter blocks that spell out words like "Douchbag" or "Assclown". They frequently are way outta hand and legend has it a couple years ago two Santas even were "intimate" in a back booth. In my experience its best to just let Santa finish....... um....... moving on......... Then you also have the get-togethers to bake Christmas cookies (delicious) and also caroling groups.... (HINT... downtown late night caroling can quickly become a group holdup/robbery. So stay in the neighborhoods.) All leading up to the main event. The work Xmas party. Where I assume its the same for most of you. People having one too many. Getting crazy. Hooking up with a coworker. Often times its the people who never go out cutting loose because.....  that's what Jesus's birthday is all about?????? Seems more fitting for like Presidents Day (Clinton joke!!) ...and....whatever... For me....... the Xmas party season is all about seeing friends and family (even the crazy ones... and.. yes I will be attending).... decorating the tree and then self loathing.... giving great presents and regifting last year's.... eating some delicious food and crying into eggnog and uh..... of course holiday happiness...... also...... great parties people!
