My favorite scent is clover

Just climb into the garden like this guy, dude.

SLOOTJES LOPIK. That's what it says on the crane, and that's what you get for using a crane from IKEA.

I feel ya. Before I moved away from DC (I lived there and worked at the same damn company for 8 years), I would go months without someone saying "Good morning" to me at the office. Once you're established at an office where you're not one of the social people, it's hard to just suddenly start. So I did look for…

My mortifying holiday party experience ended up changing my life completely. It was my first job out of college, it was in my field of choice and I hated it.

This isn't me, but it's a great holiday party story so I'll tell it anyway.

I worked for an EXTREMELY disreputable publishing company that was constantly being sued for sexual harassment, and our holiday parties (really, all parties) were pretty legendary bacchanals, so I was not super thrilled to have to plan one. I picked a lovely hotel bar near the office, we arrive around happy hour about…

I've been with the same company for about 7 years, but after 4 years in New York, I moved to our office in Chicago. The very first Chicago holiday party, we went to a Mexican restaurant and everyone had to get drunk because we were playing Minute To Win It games. I was chosen for the game where two 2-liter soda…

Weeeeeellll, there was the one holiday party where the coworker I was going "home" with ran up on a curb and everyone believed it was because I was blowing him at the time...

I'm organizing our office party. I'll check in after next week.
