val-holla-ing 12.14.2007 02:14 PM

ouch! no disaster stories from christmas parties, though. that's jesus' birthday.

girlgun 12.14.2007 02:22 PM

by jesus you mean chicken wing? so tender and mild? (which is how my kid has been singing silent night and i told him he probably shouldn't do that at school... since someone might get a little upset he's substituting chicken wing for holy infant)

Office parties: to be avoided. I've had a good season of crashing other people's work parties whilst entirely avoiding three of my own. Winner.

I have a work party to attend on the 20th. I just found out yesterday that the managers organized a Secret Santa gift exchange, and pulled names for all of the employees. If I had known they were going to do this, I would have asked them to leave my name out of it, because I don't have $20 to spare for this dumb gift I have to buy for someone who may as well be a complete stranger. I mean don't these people realize that we have families and real friends we have to buy gifts for as well? Cunts.

girlgun 12.14.2007 03:30 PM

at this party i may have done the following things:
punched someone's husband
went on and on and on about how hot this female employee is... to her... and i kept going on and i wrapped it up by telling her i'm not a lesbian.
called a bunch of people pussies.
told someone else's husband that we should go home together and his wife should go home with my husband. it didn't come out like i meant it to.

ha ha-- how is that you meant it to come out?

but look on the bright side: you're in oklahoma

i'm sure that's the bread & butter of social life in your fine state

did this happen all recently, or is that your rapsheet?

val-holla-ing 12.14.2007 03:39 PM

eh, fuck it. sillier shit has been said at office parties. the sooner you guys start joking about it, the sooner you won't be "that wife" anymore.

girlgun 12.14.2007 03:40 PM

i don't know how i meant it to come out. i... don't... know. i wasn't flirting.

oh no... i did all that last night at his work party.

i have a bad habit of calling people pussies when i drink.

there's this one guy who hates me because he's nickname is now pussy.

4th of july:
girl: hey everyone want a shot?
pussy: oh no... not me.
me: why the fuck not? you a fucking pussy? waaaah does your pussy hurt? awww your poor poor fucking pussy. you fucking pussy... just take a fucking shot, puss.
pussy: blank stare
girl: here are the shots! (and she brought the pussy one too... we all drink shots, including the pussy)
me: awww did that make your pussy feel better, you fucking pussy?

and on... and on....

i tried to tell him one night that i didn't really think he was a pussy... he didn't seem to care.

I can't wait for someone to "roast" me at my retirement party for being the guy who worked there for twenty-five years and never attended such events.


17 years! impressive!

synth... savage is going to kill you for using that! haha.

girlgun 12.14.2007 03:59 PM

haha I'm not mad. she was pretty bombed though. I had to get her out of there before she got any worse. I have to work with these people ffs and they are all a bunch of hens.

however, as mentioned, she was out-wifed.

the lady who's husband got punched (on stage during a trivia thing) didn't seem to care. she just wanted to talk about "chris' wife". hahahah

also of note, she:
  • introduced herself as my "husband" to my boss.
  • discovered a new love for wine. "I'm totally into the pink".
  • asked to have a picture taken of herself with Vanessa and "Emily's ass"
  • called me "pussy" so many times that I took her to the bar near our house afterward.
  • insisted that she did all of this because she was "punk rock" (I agree).
it's all good because I got $50 out of the deal. good times.

I really wish there was video footage.
I say blame it on "stress" from the ice whatnot.
