maybe I should walk to CT on Friday...

Apparently if you don't go to the Dean's holiday party, the Dean's holiday party comes to you. The office looks like a catering company exploded in it, and we're all walking around loading up plates. The breakfast leftovers are spread out over the top of about ten feet of filing cabinets, and the lunch leftovers are in the fridge for later. Whatever we don't eat today and tomorrow, we have to take home. Ye gods.

(Although, if I have to pick a week to probably have my checking account be overdrawn for a couple of days, a week in which people keep shoving food at me is probably one of the better ones.)
