First I noticed calling birds pecking at the biscotti near the coffee carafes. As I turned my head, I almost gave myself whiplash. My eyes must have been playing tricks because I saw several ladies dancing the Macarena while pipers piped Zamfir cover tunes. They were moving so crazy that they smashed a turtle doves ice sculpture. I stammered over to see if I could help them but geese were laying golden rings all over the floor. What a mess!
I thought... what was in that punch? As I stared at my glass, I could hear drummers drumming "In the Air Tonight" by Phil Collins. The shattered turtle doves ice sculpture reformed right in from of me and those crazy calling birds just kept pecking at the biscotti. I MUST have consumed the wrong punch! I went to get some of that coffee to re-orient my senses. I picked up the glass coffee carafe and saw itty-bitty swans, swimming on the surface. I shut my eyes, shook my head, but they were still there. Itty-bitty swans swimming in the coffee carafe. As I stood in disbelief my eyes were drawn up to see lords leaping from the cracker plate into the pâté!
That was the last thing I remember of the staff Christmas party. I know there's a reason I don't drink. Maybe next year I'll play it extra safe and stick with bottled water.
