Christmas Party!!

I LOVE Christmas!
It really is the most wonderful time of year. Christmas cookies, Christmas trees, Christmas lights, Christmas Carolers, and Christmas Parties.
Every year the hospital I work at has a big Christmas party. In all honesty the party kinda sucks. The food isn't great, the entertainment is terrible, the sound system never works right, and you are stuck talking the the same people you live and work with every day.
I love this guy's face. He is honestly bored and is totally ignoring everyone at our table.
There are two redeemable facts about the work Christmas Party.
1- It is mandatory semi-formal attire. This is very exciting for people who spend most of their days in uniform. Its time to dress up and be an individual! Here's a picture of me and and my boss all dressed up in front of the Christmas tree.
2- Every year the party committee raises money to try to have the party at an awesome location. Every year they fail. They are then forced to buy raffle presents with the left over money. This year they gave away $50,000 in prizes (and no that was not a typo). In all honesty this is the only reason people go to the party. This year there were X-Boxes, Ipods, big screen flat panel T.V.s and more!
Here's Sam and some guys hanging out waiting for good prizes.
Unfortunately we didn't win anything, but we had a good time anyhow. You know what they say come for the prizes . . . stay for the fun. Okay maybe the saying doesn't quite go like that, but you all get the idea.

Anyhow. . .hope you all are having a wonderful start to your Christmas Season!

Happy Holidays!!
