I survived the annual work party and managed to have some fun. We drove to my boss' house on Saturday afternoon, expecting the 'biggest storm of the season'. Yeah, so basically my car got washed. I think more water comes out of a car wash then the whole storm combined. You gotta love that California weather.

We were the first ones to arrive (figures) and helped set things out. It was nice to see my boss in a cheerful mood. Her husband even managed to show up (don't ask) and be pleasant. I love how I'm her assistant and he still has no clue as to who I am. And we've met several times. Soon the other guests arrived and we started to enjoy ourselves. The food was good, there was only ONE Christmas game to get through and everyone had a blast. We sat at the cool peoples table and talked about horse fucking and other bizarre news items that would have had the other guests running for the door. JakeD got roped into playing the White Elephant game... and scored a nice candle set. After that we were out the door. I wished my boss a merry Christmas and she gave me an odd look. "I'll see you on Monday." You'll what!?! Oh yes, I was the pillar of calmness. My friend laughed all the way to her car, talking about the expression on my face. Lovely.

We followed my friend/his boss who lives around there to see some gorgeous Christmas lights. The homes were incredible and the lights were professionally done. I would love to go back and see more closer to the Christmas holiday. JakeD We managed to get lost on the way back, but found our way. I'd rather be lost in a uber rich neighborhood then some backwoods psycho infested area any day. But that goes without saying.
