13 OMGs About our evening at the Yearly Gala at my Husbands Office.
1. It was planned for July 23-25th outside in the TEXAS HEAT
2. Hurricane Dolly hit the Texas Coast about 1:00pm
3. The rain forecast was only 20%
4. The temperature at 7:00 pm when it started was 90
5. With a potential for Rain, they chose to put the food outside with no cover
6. At 7:30 pm Rain and wind hit hard
7. All the food was ruined (yes including the desert buffet)
8. About 15 people had to leave because they were soaked
9. Anyone that showed up after the rain got no food. Like us.
10. There was an open bar and it did get used by all
11. 5-7 beers on an empty stomach make men "Interesting"
12. Women away from home have the "Dancing Bug"
13. Sweet talk the waiter and he will add Cajun Potato Planks to the company tab for you because by 9:30 and 3 beers down I needed dinner (he got a big tip)

Open bars make so many things better. Happy TT!
Sorry to hear Dolly messed up the party. At least you had a good waiter!
I am dealing with Dolly right now. We are getting hit with the rain, wind and a few tornadoes have touched down in town, no one has been hurt but a few buildings have been damaged. And what are my kids doing... watching the movie Twister!
haha funny! Sounds quite interesting!
Boy, that sounds like a fun time, not!
I'm thankful now that my husband's work shindigs are always indoors.
Number 13 cracked me up!!!! Too funny. Happy Thursday!

At least the bar stayed open! Texas, humidity, hurricanes....ack!
Oh no! Makes me kinda glad we don't do big shindigs at work!
But an open bar fixes everything!
Happy TT!
Sorry to hear about your party just wish we would have gotten some of that rain up here in East Texas...
Happy TT!
