Haha! I've been thinking about your filet steaks since you mentioned them yesterday, any chance of a photo of those?  ;D

To say morale has just dropped dramatically in the office would be an understatement.

I think you guys might need a group counseling session.  I would be distraught.  :/

I very briefly thought about taking a picture because it was our celebratory noms and the steaks were amazing, but we just nommed them down.  I'm kind of sad... I should've taken the picture, with the zombies stood around the plate holding up their flags.  *sigh*  But it was nearly 6pm and I hadn't eaten all day.  I needed food.

hahahah that's what you get for gloating KF!

KoD is fierce!   ;D

It's just all been going wrong at work this week.

Yesterday, it was literally boiling inside the office.  Ice Cream Man came.  I requested an ice lolly.  He said, "Purple or orange."  I picked purple.  I was then handed a purple package that contained a blue raspberry colored popsicle.  I thought, "Wow, I was expecting black currant, but blue raspberry is great too."  I then took a lick.  IT WAS BUBBLEGUM FLAVOURED.  It was the nastiest thing ever.  But I ate it, because it was 200 freaking degrees in the office.

Then I got home after sweating my tail off all day and poured myself a large G&T.  I was so dehydrated that I felt like I had drunk 10 drinks and felt like absolute sh*t.  I didn't sleep well as a result of my over indulgence of alcohol while dehydrated.  I won't make that mistake again.

And now the FOOD TRUCK HAS CANCELLED.  Ugh.

there are very few things in life that are more upsetting than thinking you're receiving blue raspberry flavoured but actually it's bubblegum.....WHY ISN'T BUBBLEGUM PINK!?

How much longer 'til your holiday?  It sounds like you're ready.  So ready!

If you haven't washed the dishes yet you could still take an 'after' photo of the celebratory meal with zombies, for posterity... I don't need to see that though!   ;D

You can do it!  All you have to do is not kill anybody for one week and two days (plus the remainder of today).  You can do this!

You don't want to see our dirty dishes?  :P

But, actually, we didn't even clear the table last night.  We left everything and just went to bed.  Photo time is ON!

Ahhh, life without a cat.  Mine would have licked the plates clean and then bared his guts everywhere from eating people food.

We practically licked them clean ourselves.  This is the aftermath:

Zombie lying down seems appropriate.
