A-day wishes

A little button has reminded me that today davidschroth and mizzlaurajean anniversary. Happy anniversary to you both, and may you have many many many more.

Work party

Last night we hosted a little holiday party for my coworkers at our house. Sadly, I forgot to warn everyone that traffic on 494 can be a real bitch, and that they should allow extra time. So the party started about 30 to 45 minutes late, but once everyone got there we had fun.

The party was pretty typical for coworker functions. We just stood around the kitchen and gallery talking and grazing from the food table. There were lots of nice appetizers and snacks to munch on, and people brought wine and beer.

Last week someone gave me this frozen eggnog mix from target. It comes in this big bucket, and I just needed to mix the ingredients with 750 ml of rum, and fill the rest with water. It was surprisingly tasty.

Gabby was her typical crazy self. Something set her off and she was chasing lights and shadows like a mad dog. My coworkers seemed to be sufficiently entertained by this, but it always embarrasses me a bit. Maybe when I take her in to the vet I'll talk to them about doggie Prozac.

On its way

My sister's family's gift is now on its way down to Mississippi. She won't have it in time for Christmas day, but it should arrive on Wednesday or Thursday, which is close enough.
