Club soda with lime. Unless you’re under a black light, it looks like a gin or vodka tonic, and no one will ask.

This is a good one to ask the people who’ve been before. At my office, a lot of people don’t bring a plus one even though we can.

We will also ask get at least tipsy… And it’s totally OK.

It’s a know your office thing.

Wild Kitten, you are so smart, I never even thought of this! But you did so I do NOT have to! YAY! Anyway, Kat, my office hold’s a big holiday party for CLEINT’s (in addition to our own internal party), and in past year’s we have had to dress up like ELVES. I convinced the manageing partner NOT to make us do that any more b/c we did NOT look very profesional, and mabye that is why we were NOT included in the NY Magazine’s list of Best Lawyers this year. He said we could dress as we want, but that we HAVE to mingel with all of the cleint’s even those who are behind on their billing’s.

The manageing partner gave me a special billing incentive for 2 cleint’s who owe us more then $40,0o0. He told me that I can “win” 30% of all of the money I collect from these over due billieng’s. That means up to $12,000! I told him I will get ALL of the money so that I can get $12,000, and if I do, I will DONATE 1/2 of it to NY Cares and 1/2 of it to ME! YAY!!!!! I will tell these two cleint’s EXACTELEY what I am doeing so that I can help them to help NY Cares with me (and me of course!) DOUBEL YAY.

That is what holiday partie’s are all about–haveing fun and raiseing money for charity and me! YAY!!!!
