My firm already had the "unofficial" Christmas party last Friday. The official Christmas party/luncheon takes place next week.

The "unofficial" party was great! Each year they have it a bar and associates, partners, and firm staff perform skits. I performed Santa Baby and Blues Brothers. Yeah, they go all out! It's amazing what people will do when they have some licca in em!

We don't have our party until after the holidays (January) and I'm undecided.

our section of the psych department is small enough that you kinda need to go or else everybody will definitely notice and wonder if you're dying or something.

My department has two parties. The "official" one is next week sometime, and the "unofficial" one that's staff only is later in the week...at the Cheesecake Factory AWAY from the job. I'll be at both!

I'm not attending. This is very different for our holiday social. From what I've heard, most folks are NOT attending. I wouldn't be surprised if its canceled because of low numbers. We are accustomed to a blowout with alcohol, food, and a DJ. Our school is known for partying hard. This is totally out of our element, so I am SURE there will be an unofficial party planned before we get out on the 21st.

I am going. My firm goes all out with the menu and location. We're at a country club nearby. We choose from Filet Mignon and Salmon, Filet Mignon and Chicken Or Vegetarian. Unfortunately, I'm trying to become a vegetarian so I will have to sit there and watch everyone else eat my favorite cut of beef while I have the vegetarian plate!

Oh well.

I attended my college alumni social last night. It was a mellow event. We didn't get out of hand. Someone did bring Long Island Iced Tea. I hadn't had that since I was in college. It was a great gathering. We had class members from the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s present. I enjoy hearing about the good ole days.

Soror, the same thing about the people at my job:

Someone passes the bar exam - let's go to the bar.
Someone's leaving for another job - let's go to the bar.
New interns coming in - let's go to the bar.

Notice the pattern here? LOL.

...SC, why don't you try to become a vegetarian after the party? I mean, no sense in letting a good, "free" steak just go past you all like that, right?

I attended the holiday party for the campus that I work on. It was very festive. They had a calypso band, horderves and great gifts that they raffled off.

Our holiday party was Saturday. A lot of people were toasted by the time I left, and that was 9:15p. I couldn't get down like that.
