Today I learned what I had been doing wrong this whole time I was working for the Boss. I never got him drunk!

Not to say that he's drunk at work right now!! But he's certainly come back after a very long lunch and is sounding very very happy. In fact, he even giggled to himself a few times. And very candidly spoke about someone he knew who'd recently put on a lot of weight and how she looked out of control. I told him that was a mean thing to say but was secretly tickled by his demeanour. Initially, when the phone flashed the digits of his extention number, my heart had dropped. I wasn't prepared to show him the submissions I had been slaving over for this past week. In the morning he'd called to press me about them and I assumed he was only calling me at 5pm to scold me for not getting them to him earlier in the day and being tardy about the work. But instead, after his jolly lunch, he called to wish me a great vacation and said that we could get to the subs when I got back.

Perhaps its just the Christmas spirit. But I certainly ain't complaining!!

Anwyays, I know I've been MIA of late. Mostly becuase I've just been swamped with work, even though December is supposed to be a quiet month. The Boss and I have been in trial and when we're not in the courtroom, I'm working on the closing submissions. I've been rushing to tie up as much as I can before I go on a family vacation to Egypt tomorrow (which I'm absolutely looking forward to!) so I'll probably not be blogging till I get back.

Happy holidays world!
