First off, let me say congratulations to Worker Bee C. for getting her Aggie ring this past Friday!! Whoop!! Our office always makes an occasion of it when it comes to big events in any of our co-workers lives, so Worker Bee C’s ring dunk, we will call her C., is definitely not something to sneeze at! Friends (i.e. co-workers) and family (i.e. Mom, and any other family member that wants to see C. throw up her Bud Lite Lime) gathered together on this joyous night to watch our friend drown her ring in a tasty, hot, no longer carbonated beer. This we know will be fun. However, the real humor in the situation comes in when we realize that all but two of the “friends” that were there are co-workers. This is humorous because it has been way too long since we have all assembled with the same goal in mind. To talk and have fun. It’s been especially long since we have done this outside of the confines of the bar. Because you have no idea the type of dynamics we carefully maintain inside of the office, it’s even harder to see how we twist, shake, shave, put in a blender, and pour into glasses those dynamics when we are in a party atmosphere. You have only to look at pictures from the party to see that C.’s party was not only a success from her ring dunk, but that it’s success was determined by our group that does crazier and crazier things together every time we meet up.

Confessional:  Whenever my friends and I have more fun than we should, our pictures always end up with us laying on the ground taking pictures. Sober or not if there’s a good time to be had, it’s with a camera, my friends, and a nice patch of carpet or grass.
