Par-Tay

Today will be a fun day. My best friend and I are having our annual Christmas lunch/gift exchange today. I adore her. We work together - sort of. We work in the same place, but she works downstairs, while I work upstairs. If I don't visit her office or she mine, we could go all day without seeing one another. These little escapes, of which we partake on our birthdays and on Christmas, are nice escapes wherein we can gossip about everything and everyone, complain about our husbands and children, share our well-kept secrets, and celebrate our wonderfulness. We have a blast! The staff lounge is already filling with Christmas goodies. The air is celebratory. The holidays are upon us and I am embracing them enthusiastically!
