Off Partying, Short break from Blogging

December 13, 2007 by The Chatty DM

Chatty DM’s IconChatty DM’s IconChatty DM’s IconChatty DM’s IconTonight’s is my Christmas party.

Being one of the only extroverted guys of our very geeky Genetics company, I’m also one of the party’s MCs. I’m leaving in 30 minutes to set up decorations and what not. So my online presence will be severely limited untill Saturday morning (I party tonight, and I recuperate tomorrow).

All this to say that I shall also take a very short break from blogging in the next 2-3 days or so. My last 2 posts took me more than 4 hours to write and my creative batteries are running a bit lower than usual. I’ll drop by the forums once in a while.

I’m leaving the blog in the eager hands of PM, who’s been looking for an opportunity to backstab this poor crunch overlord.

Well friend, here are the keys… enjoy! Don’t forget: no parties with your fluffy friends!

Have a nice weeknend guys. I’ll be back by Sunday.

Cheers!

    Thank you Mike… Much appreciated… I’m surprised to see the place still standing.

    Headaches, puffy eyes, less than 6 hours of sleep… talked too much business… good party!

    My troops for hire got caught in traffic last night so I had to reschedule the takeover… I still have a bit of time.

    Yeah we had a fine if we talk of work during our party.

    something like

    1$ for most of the people
    2$ for project coordinator
    5$ for director
    20$ for VP

    The cash was given to the social comity… 😉 (which received 67$ in the end of the evening;) )
