I have to say that, while working in an office environment can normally be very boring and mundane...it's the best place in the world to be at Christmas time. Everyday we get packages of food delivered from various clients and such. Bagels, chocolates, GIGANTIC baskets of Christmas-time desserts...etc, etc, etc. I am currently noshing on a pecan bar from Heaven. I can't even imagine how much fatter I would have been as a teenager if I had been Christian and ate this stuff every year.
Let's not forget to mention Christmas parties and lunches. Last week was a small gathering thrown for our department with alcohol and various hors dourves (Bari, did I spell that right?), yesterday was the Secret Santa lunch with tons of Italian food and Secret Santa gifts (I got a Jem and the Holograms t-shirt!!!!!) and tonight is a giant Christmas bash for all of Home Entertainment and then we Creatives are going karaokeing afterwards.
I would like to take this time to personally thank Jesus for being born during this time of year. Without you, none of this would be possible. We'd all be Jews or Muslims (and some Eastern religions...but the Western world knows jack about their holidays, so for the purposes of this blog, they don't count). We'd be fasting for 40 days and then clients would send baskets of dreidels, crappy chocolate gelt, latkes and jello-molds (which I guess is pretty equivalent to fruit cake, without the bread carbs).
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
