triple threat--3rd post for the day

i could have just written a long assed post and spilled out all of my thoughts but i thought i'd make it easier on you : )

we had our holiday party last night and i think it went pretty well. though several people couldn't come because they (or their kids) were sick, we had about 10-12 people and it was nice.

nothing got too out of hand. i didn't get wasted--though i did drink some black and tan and, after losing a game of wii bowling, had to do a shot of tequila. though last night we talked about previous parties (well, one in particular) where there was boob flashing and people passing out and someone puked in the dining room and people had sex in our bathroom and we started a game of strip scrabble, our parties don't get that wild any more. is it because we're getting older? is it because we have a different mix of attendees? i don't know.

today we met my bro, sil, puddin' and gameboy for lunch to celebrate my bro's 34th bday. i'm so thankful they're a part of our lives and just wish we could spend more time together. they couldn't come to the party last night cos puddin' had a drs appt and turns out a double ear infection. oy vey. i thought the girl was going to cry when i told her they weren't coming. she is soooooo enamored w/ puddin and the idea of babysitting, but especially puddin. gameboy and my boy decided he should come and live w/ us so they could be brothers. so freakin' sweet.

overall, a very good weekend so far. after tomorrow it's back to work. i dread it.

Love black and tans. So good. Makes me want one right now!

Noone had sex in the bathroom? I find that to be the measure of good party. I don't want to go back to work either...getting up late, watching tv, playing on the web...that's the life for me.

But there isn't as much food at work, and I need to get back on a schedule.

bea--i usually drink guinness but tried the b/t instead and liked em.

shere--it's a type of ylingylang (sure i slaughtered that spelling) beer. i like dark beers when i drink beer. and, for the record, i was well behaved at my party : )

hotch--there was just the one party where a couple had sex in the br (and it wasn't us). i could totally get used to not working, but then the hubs feels the same way and i think it's probably illegal to hire the kids out for odd jobs. we need to win the lottery.

You WERE well behaved at the party -and actually, so was the hubs!!
Mr.Spanx and I had a good time (even tho we left early 'cause Mr.Spanx is OLD!!)and look forward to coming to the parties where y'all get crazy :-)

word verf is "stablin", which is what i would sorely need after losing so many games...

Oh, I am so SAD about going to work tomorrow. It has so great being off and now I'm depressed.

Thanks for the award, I will post it soon!

I do read All & Sundry's blog but I typically don't comment, I read a couple of A list blogs but I don't ever really comment since they get so many!

spanx--i understand why you're looking forward to today, but i'm still sad : ( i am glad you and the mr. came to the partay : ) i think perhaps though that the wild and out of control days are gone. and that's not always a bad thing.

just--bloody marys (cos the other would be ma--rees i think) are yummy.

tracy--i love reading all & sundry (though i don't do it daily like my other faves) but i never comment either cos she has such a huge following. i feel lost there. like the geeky kid trying to hone in at the cool kids' table at lunch.
