Dec 21
It’s oh so very very very quiet…
I’m at work. There are about 7 people here on this floor. Everyone else is GAWN for the holiday or stuck home due to the NYC transit strike.
It’s really kind of eerie. Instead of the steady buzz/murmur of many people typing and talking on the phone, I can hear individual conversations from many desks and offices away… it’s that quiet.
Allow me to share the legal disclaimer I included with the gift I bestowed upon my secret Santa. It was taken from a greeting card I purchased, so I can’t claim creative genius here:
No tag for this post.Merry Christmas*
*Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, non-addictive, gender neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion, or secular persuasions of your choice, with respect for the religious secular persuasions and/or traditions of others or their choice not to practice religious or secular practices at all, and a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2006, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society are herewith acknowledged, and without regard to race, creed, age, color, physical ability, religious faith, belief or sexual orientation of the recipient forthwith known as the wishee. By accepting this greeting, you are accepting these terms. This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal. It implies no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the wishes for her/himself or others, and is void where prohibited by law and is revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher.
