Partner in Crime

Oh the shenanigans we would get into at work!
I didn't realize it had been almost 5 years since I had seen Heidi & I'm so glad we were finally able to get together for lunch at Bread & Cie before I had to head out of town for the weekend. We caught up on each other's lives and reminisced about the past. And we laughed...a lot. We had almost forgotten that we had a goofy golf course set up around the office, played online wheel of fortune during lunch hours so often that we could guess the puzzles before any letters were up, and sent a tacky gold reindeer to our boss for his birthday while he was on a business trip in China. But distance can not separate our crime spree and we've sent pieces of that reindeer back & forth to each other for a surprise birthday or Christmas present to each other for the past 5 years. I fear the reindeer that we held onto for so long is now gone as we partnered up this Christmas and sent it right back to our minimalist former boss who I'm sure threw that nasty thing straight in the trash. It's not the first time that thing has been in the trash as we had to retrieve it once before after it was haphazardly tossed away! Aaah, good times. Whatever we were doing at work it usually either involved a lot of stress or a lot of laughter and I must say, I think laughter is one of the best parts of living!
