[QUOTE=taxi78cab] Our work Christmas party is this Friday. One fashion question: are halter style dresses still ok? I’ve got a red one that’s very Christmas-y, but I don’t want everyone to be staring and thinking “Oh, that’s SOOO last year!” :rolleyes: [/QUOTE] I don’t know anything about current US fashions, but halter tops with the halter in the right place should always be in fashion. Halter tops with the halter in the wrong place, OTOH, should be burned. The woman inside them should only be slightly scorched, to give her a chance to repent her evil ways. IT’S SNOWED! Hereabouts it’s traditional to get ONE day of snow, about January 8th (when I was in college, it always snowed just on the day I’d taken the train back to school). This year it’s been early and we may get more than one, but like I’d said before, it was waaaaaay overdue. Sorry to make you guys worry. I spent almost a whole week down south with a friend and his parental units (no internet access), then the 4-day weekend of Dec 6th in Segovia with those strange folks from Mensa (no internet access), then it’s been crazy busy at home… uhm, does being virtually bowled over by a redhead cause bruises? ---

I went to bed early, so now I’m up more than an hour early. I was really awake, so I figured I’d just go ahead and get started on the day. **Cutie Pie** , my heart was broken by the thought of frozen lettuce, so I was unable to articulate my sympathy. Oh, and: 😛😃😛 Sorry about the dental discomfort, **meli**. Glad you made it through finals, though. Nice to see you back, **Nava**. Since you’re longing for snow, **SO** … Did you already [make a snowflake](http://www.popularfront.com/snowdays/?banner435)? Congrats on the work accomplishment **FCM**! It does feel good to be recognized from time to time, doesn’t it? All that food sounds yummy, **Taters**. Well, I guess I need to get ready for work. I’m being subjected to one more birthday celebration today (free lunch, wooo hooooooo!). I should turn 50 more often. **SCL** …just keep thinking of the benefits! Happy Tuesday! GT ---

[QUOTE=Noone Special] Makes sense – although aren’t there going to be all kinds of events on Monday? or are all the offices and workplaces closed all next week, too, so they’re having all their Christmas Events this week already? [/QUOTE] Don’t get me started on the joy that is spending the holidays with my family next Monday. Actually, no, I don’t have too much work related going on Christmas Eve. You see, most of my clients (about 99%) are daily lunch clients. Their work for the YEAR ends on Dec 21 and then resumes Jan 3. They feed doctors’ offices and give ‘informational’ talks. Not too many doctors are interested in this sort of thing during the craziness of the holidays. Since I’ve only been at my retail location for about 6 months, I don’t have too many other customers yet.
