hi guys! please bear with me here as i catch up on all of my end of month (and end of year) posts! i'm working on getting them done! ~Lindsay ^.~
week 1: soo. i got promoted again... how'd that happen?! anyway that was cool. went to teh paul's office's christmas party, and guess what! we won a raffle prize again this year. the value was comparable to what we got last year (a home depot gift card). we ended up returning the item, because it's not something either of us would use, but we definitely used the home depot store credit we got for it! also, if you haven't had a cajun kringle, you're missing out. those things are like $15, and to order one online, it was like $45!! that's crazy, especially considering how far away i live. so i picked it up in person. my team loved it!
week 2: it snowed. like legit snow falling for almost a full day. that. never. happens. here, ever. on a lesser note, due to certain occurrences in the prior week and after several months of being nagged to, someone got our security system ordered and installed.
week 3: so, bubz's book. i read the entire first part one night and loved it so much that i bought 3 physical copies for two friends and a cousin. i have yet to pick it up again -- partially because i got the kindle version, and i've always had problems reading ebooks (and yes, back in the day, i attempted to read a few different books on project gutenberg before smartphones existed). this week, we also had our team dinner, which was pretty fun. it was weird because our manager was out of town at the client site, but his manager came. it was really nice talking with him and reflecting on the good things (achievements) that happened to each of us this year. then for the first time in the [short] history of our office, we had an office-wide off-site after-hours [alcohol-served] party. 😯 one of my coworkers volunteered her new photobooth business to the party and it was awesome.
week 4: to anyone that happens upon this post, no we haven't figured out if or when we're doing a housewarming party. we were waiting til after the holidays, but my grandparents requested it'd be after they return from their vacation, and mardi gras, and chinese new year, and then my birthday'll be here before we know it. so i have no clue how we want to coordinate all that. in other news, harry and david pears are the perfect gift! gotta get some every year! annnd we went and saw star wars..and mixed feelings. i didn't grow up on the series, so i'm not as invested as some people into the franchise, but what. was. that. 😕
week 5: the last week of the year. the last week of the apartment. ten and a half years of my own apartment(s) had ended. wow! but i'm so glad i'm away from all that craziness!
