Company X-Mas Party

So now it's been three weeks, and the water cooler gossip is STILL going on. I'm sure by now the story has completely changed. Rumor probably tells it differently, but it really was just some innocent flirting aided by a couple of drinks. LOL

I know I've mentioned before, how some of the women make the office water cooler gossip about me, but sometimes... I just have to giggle as I walk by. The latest stories of "The Company Holiday Party" are probably going to be around for a few months. LOL

My company had rented a beautiful hall at a local 5 star hotel. It was absolutely beautiful, yummy food, a dance floor, and a great DJ. I love getting dressed up! I wore a long beautiful red gown, and pinned my hair up in a french twist. Wore my favorite pearl earrings and matching necklace. It was neat to see everyone who you see on a day to day basis all decked out in formal attire, I didn't even recognize some of them! A few of them clean up real nice (ha ha)

The party started off with the usual small talk - about business, new contracts and goals for the coming year... BORING! I had a few glasses of champagne and was ready to get the party started, I was not there to talk about business, I wanted to let loose, have fun and take full advantage of my companies generosity of picking up the tab at the end of the night *giggle*

Of course, the free booze was probably what started it all. Ha ha. but I could see as the time passed, most had started to let their guards down, not standing straight up and even slouching a little - instead of handshakes when seeing a familiar face, now being greeted with hugs... the soft voices, no more - there was laughter and you could no longer hear what the person next to you was saying.

I was ready to PAR-TAY - No one else was on the dance floor, So I headed out there, and started grabbing other girls I knew on my way out to the dance floor. We had fun, and I could see now all eyes were focused on us, a few in disbelief, they were jealous because we were having fun. After several songs, there were more people now out on the dance floor, and the party has finally started!

That's when I noticed the big boss watching me. Every time his wife turned her head, or got up to go get food or a fresh drink, his eyes were glued on me. I acted like I didn't see him, but started this fun slow grind. He was all eyes. You should have seen the gal from accounting - if looks could kill - She's had the hots for boss man for MONTHS. I danced a few more songs, and went back to my table.

The boss kept glancing over and smiling, every time his wife wasn't looking. I was having so much fun, I probably threw him a wink. But, since I had to carpool, I left when my designated driver left. Shame!

We'll see what the verdict is come time for a raise. *wink*
