Christmas in July

Each year, our department at work goes out for the holidays to celebrate and exchange gifts. It's lovely really.

Well.

We're a MARKETING department, therefore, we procrastinate. The original date was sometime in January. Then February. And before we knew it, July 15th was the date etched in stone.

We arrived at work, pulled the already-decorated miniature Christmas tree out of the closet, placed our gifts underneath, and had a wonderful "family moment" opening them. A little while later, we made like trees and got the hell out of there.

In honor of todays economy, we skipped the steakhouses and headed straight for The Billy Goat Tavern for lunch. It's a total dive. What fun!

Then, our boss treated us to Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (an exceptional movie, by the way).

Now that's a good day at the office.
