Live your life in such a way that when your feet hit the floor in the morning, Satan shudders and says... 'Oh shit....she's awake!!'

""Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!""

Despite the dire weather predictions and 2 inches of snow earlier in the day, our 2007 holiday party was (in our estimation) a huge success. Here are the "numbers" for this year's party:
# Actual Attendees 83


Liquor 3125 ml
Beer 24 bottles
Red Wine 14 bottles
Champagne 10 bottles
White Wine 4 bottles

Pop 44 cans
Water 54 bottles


Thanks to everyone who braved the weather to venture out last night. John and I had a fabulous time...and it is ALL thanks to YOU!

Wishing you a safe and happy holiday season and new year!
