‘is that the real santa, or just an elf?,’
you might ask yourself
during that annual office christmas party
at some point
there is often someone
who really goes all out
feels the spirit
be ready.

I mainly missed out on Christmas Party season because of having to work shifts most of my life. I heard tales of some very ‘raucous’ parties!
Best wishes, Pete.

Hot chocolate and cookies served in the school gym didn’t do much to raise spirits. But the thought of a week off with no alarm clock ringing was heavenly.
