Making the Yuletide Gay, Jeffrey-style

A Bluesocket Christmas party before Jill: 60 rich engineers eating subpar food, drinking no more than two free drinks, and sitting quietly while Frank Sinatra and Brenda Lee croon to the walls.

A Bluesocket Christmas party with Jill: 20 rich engineers coaxing drink tickets from pregnant women and teetotalers, rocking out to OutKast and Usher, entertaining nary a thought of the walk-of-shame into work on Monday, while 40 others look on, thoroughly entertained.

Other new developments since my last post include a Christmas tree on our porch (for now), a foot of snow in the yard (for now), and a book signed by Bill Simmons in exchange for a quasi-mustachioed Curt Schilling rookie card, for which he seemed quite grateful. Let's hope it makes its way into a column one of these days.

The porch! Genius...I've been thinking hard about where to put the tree this year, why not outside. I can't even buy our treen until our floors are done which makes perfect sense, why buy it if there is nothing below it to potentiall ruin.
