Sorry this post is a bit late; I had an eventful turkey weekend. We're ending our quarter this year with a Christmas party/gift exchange! Tara posted most of the info, so I'll just reiterate with some modifications.
Friday 12/5 Holiday gift exchange party!
White elephant gift exchange: We ask that everyone please bring a wrapped gift with a max value of $10 to participate in the exchange. Everyone who brings a gift will be allowed to either pick a gift from the hoard or steal someone else's gift if it happens to be more appetizing. Each gift can be stolen a maximum of two times (so no one can create an infinite loop...haxors...) and you can't steal back anything that gets stolen from you. If you get your gift stolen from you, your turn starts anew. This process repeats until everyone has a gift.
Special holiday screening: We will be watching Tokyo Godfathers by acclaimed director Satoshi Kon to get us in the mood for the holidays. It's a frickin awesome movie so if you haven't seen it yet sit down and WATCH!
Food: We will be having hot cocoa and dessert this Friday, so if you'd like to bring something sweet for everyone to munch on, please post that info here. Little things like cookies, cupcakes, etc...basically anything that goes well with hot cocoa or gets people in a holiday mood.
Prizes prizes prizes!: We'll be doing another raffle for prizes for those in attendance, so even if you forget to (or are too stingy to...) participate in the gift exchange there'll still be an opportunity to leave with something grand. Extra tickets for anyone who sports some sort of holiday gear. Bring a dradel! Wear a Santa cap! Anything is fine as long as you don't try and make up your own holiday...
If you have any questions, post them here.
May the holidays smother you with cheer!
