EXCITING, I suppose.

I did my usual work stuff, and then my best friend Melissa came and picked me up and we went to her Christmas party thing for her work up in Genesee (one of the first towns you hit as you start going over the mountains toward Vail and Aspen) and had a lovely dinner. We ate at the Chart House which is a VERY nice restaurant. I guess they have them all over the country, but it reminded me of eating at The Westin Westminster in the O' Room (which is where Brian's mom works).

I called Brian up at dinner and told him we were up eating at the Chart House and he was like "YOU BITCH!!!" If that says anything about the quality of food, you can just imagine.

Other than that, I've not really been doing anything...I'm extremely tired for some reason. I got tons of sleep last night, but I can just feel my eyes closing as we speak.

I have photos of the putt-putt golf thing that I want to post, but they're from someone's online photo album and I don't want to post a link to her photo album, so I'll see about trying to download all of her pictures or something and then posting some of the ones that I like the best. She took some 40 pictures and I'm sure ya'll don't want to see all those pictures...lol

Here's some of the ones that I like. We'll start with my department, the accounting department, and our Candy Land theme.



Preggo me is standing in the very middle...



Here's the road through the Peppermint Forest.



Here's the road out through Lolliland...I like this portion of the board the best.



Here is our Molasses Swamp, complete with Mr. Gloppy and yes, that is actual syrup for the swamp. It smelled so good over there...made me want waffles :) You had to hit it in through the tube over the swamp and then to the castle to make it in the hole.



Here's the actual hole, the castle...and we had a bubble machine behind it so it blew bubbles and whatnot.



Here's the "After 5" hole decorated in all of it's liquor glory. This was the closing department who did this.



This would be the redneck hole complete with Coors Light cans and tacky lawn Christmas reindeer. To get it into the hole, you had to hit it up on the ramp (for lifting cars) and into a Coors Light can...this is the property preservation department's



This is the evictions/title department with their house (complete with evictions stickers and for sale sign in the front yard). The tricky part to this hole was that the door kept opening and closing and you had to hit it in there while it was doing that.



This was the HR hole titled "Puttin' on the Ritz" and the whole thing was decorated with Ritz crackers.



This is the other Candy Land hole. It was more like a croquet course because you had to hit the ball through the little gingerbread men's legs and it was hard. No one did very well on that hole. This one belonged to the reporting department.



This is marketing's hole with all the REO houses on it. You had to hit it through all the houses to make it to the hole. My favorite one was the one in the back (it's supposed to be a mobile home) and it's slanted sideways and it has a HUGE dish on the top from Dish Network...lol



Here's pre-marketing's hole. They had all sorts of things that you might find in REO homes (i.e. bags of trash, etc)...and they had lots of little people on their course. In the back on the left, they even have Professor Snape. I sucked at this hole...I hit it in the water TWICE!

There's one other one (the IT people's hole) but you can't really see any of it. It had mostly computer pieces all over it and I didn't do very well on that hole either.

Our department won (of course) and we got a free pizza for our department. Just what us accounting people need...PIZZA.

Anyway, I hopes you enjoyed the pictures :)

those are some elaborate holes. Very creative though. :) I would have liked to play at that course :P

I'm not into putt putt golf but your course does look fun. Glad you had a nice dinner. :D

The whole office thing is so creative!! That is amazing. I ate at the charthouse here in Cali and it is nice. Expensive too!

Haha nice
I like how each department was in charge of a different section...for some reason when you wrote about this before I thought you actually worked at a putt putt course and that you were decorating it CandyLAnd style for Christmas or something XD. Lol sry I'm stupid like that.

Anyways, that looks like it'd be pretty entertaining to do, although I'd be worried about ruining anything if I attempted to play it :D How long did that take?

Wee!
That must've been fun! Too bad I don't work there, it seems to be such an exciting place--with the pumkins 'n putt-putt 'n all. =D I think I'd just end up bowling over the houses, the windows, the gingerbread men and Snape. It would look like a baad accident. >.>;;

Lovely putting area..I bet they've put in lots of effort.
