Ahhhhh...Festivus. One night of mayhem with a number of traditions involved.
Our evening began with the classic potluck dinner consisting of a large variety of ethnic foods available for consumption. Some of the favourites were the cabbage rolls, pancakes, greek salad, bologna and ketchup sandwitches, and KFC. There were also some wonderful desserts like swedish berry brownies, chocolate cherry cake, and some wonderful shortbread cookies. MMMM.
The night continued with much merriment as people ate, drank, played guitar hero, and thought of clever things to write on the "Airing of Grievances" banner in the bathroom. I am still amazed at this guitar hero phenomenon. I'm not quite sure I 'get' it. If people spent as much time actually trying to play a REAL guitar instead of trying to beat the 'expert' level, they'd be awesome musicians in REAL life.
The "Airing of Grievances" was read late in the evening to much laughter and joking...we left before the ever popular "Feats of Strength" ensued, however, I'm sure it was a good time as well. We headed home to get some rest before the next two days of craziness begin. Merry Christmas to you. Have a Happy Holiday!
Festivus YES, Bagels NO!
