"Friends don't let friends photocopy their butts at company Christmas parties."

We're having a decorating contest at work where each row plasters their desks with gaudy holiday decorations and whichever row makes the judges blind from all the shiny gets the prize.

Okay, those aren't the exact rules, but that's sort of the way it's turning out.

We have a mini Christmas tree, tons of empty boxes wrapped up like presents, blinking lights, garland, a giant teddy bear dressed like Santa, eleventy million paper snowflakes and ornaments hung from every empty spot to be found. My contribution (besides the 5 rolls of wrapping paper that didn't even put a dent in my ridiculously large personal collection) was wrapping Jose's cubicle like a giant present, complete with enormous red bow. I am particularly proud of it.

It's the most fun I've had at work in I don't even know how long!

That's hysterical about Jose's cubicle :) I'm glad that they're finally lightening up around there. So did you guys win?

We didn't win, but we came in 2nd! It's sad because we have 5 temps right now and they were really into it and now they're all bummed out.

It was a lot of fun, though, and I'm bringing my camera in tomorrow to take pictures. The insanity really has to be documented to be believed.
