Best gift giver

wedding recap
Well, I know its not a surprise, but my baby sister got married this weekend. It was a perfect weekend. I'll admit that many lists went into the making of this perfect day (you know like the lists of lists kind). And, like them or not, it really...

giveaway winner
Well, the winner came out to be #3. I have 4 different versions of the random integer file that I ran to choose it, but it is not wanting to cooperate and given the hour, I'm not patient enough to figure out what I'm doing wrong. So, can you trust me? I...

So, we've hit the wall and I'm kinda curious to see how you guys handle this situation. THE OFFICE CHRISTMAS party. While its not my first Christmas in my current office, I had only been there 3 months when the holidays rolled around last year and...
