I hate the realisation that a part of my wardrobe needs to be replaced. I hate the realisation as I wear it to work. I need new black trousers. Which means no online shopping, since it's picky fitting and styling.
Office and day are warmer today! Whew. Not warm. But warmer. So good.
I assume everyone has seen the surprised kitten by now? And is ded from teh cute?
hivemind - I need to get the food order in for our party. This is an after-work party, it will be dinner for people. Food is platters of finger food. The bar is recommending 5 pieces/person or the meat/heartier things (beef/shrimp skewers, chicken tenders, veggie rolls). I am thinking 10-12. thoughts?
How long is the party? Generally the rule is 2-3 pieces per person per hour for cocktails, 4-5 pp for dinner.
Depends on the size, I think -- if the skewer etc. is bigger than than a typical finger food -- multiple bites of meat -- than you wouldn't need as many.

That's the rule of thumb I tend to use, and I *always* have food left over.
Dana, IM is rejecting me, or at least my protocols, this morning. Boo!

Curses!
Someone in our department who went to grad school in Texas just stopped by my office to make sure I was coping with the weather.
