Now, despite my complete lack of religion*, I do thoroughly enjoy the holiday season. Everything about it makes me happy: the snow, the lights, the music.<\/P>

But I think this link may be a wee bit over the top. If I was their neighbor, I’d show them where to stick their spirit…and it wouldn’t be pretty.<\/P>

That said, yesterday was one of our holiday parties at work. It was quite enjoyable and, being very atypical of me, I stuck around the entire time! In fact, there were raffles (I lost) and a contest where we had to solve some play-on-word games from images appearing on a screen (for example, there were some belly dancers super-imposed on a faucet….tap dancers…get it?). Well, this contest was won by the table who guessed the most correctly and our table won! Todd, the party coordinator, had gone to the Harvard Coop (Harvard’s student store) to get the prizes so the assortment of winnings included Harvard Law School pens, a bag of gummi candy (sour, no less), a shot glass and, my favorite, a stick of Tom’s of Maine deodorant.<\/P>
\n

Otherwise, we all just talked, joked and then Bad, Bren and Joie did some singing of polically correct holiday music (the ungodly ones). <\/P>
\n

All in all, a great day.<\/P>
