How are you celebrating?

man! much better than my party.
my roommate and i hosted a party through our version of the “Finer Things Club”, where we all dressed up as our favorite characters. We ordered “Alfredo’s Pizza Cafe” pizza (aka Domino’s with a piece of paper stating otherwise taped on) and watched the finale of season 4 before watching the beginning of season 5.
but no fabulous cookies! :(
I feel so un-special. I didn’t do anything for the premiere, even though I’m such a big fan. Bleh.
I want a burned foot cookie!
They all look great.
my office, we work at a pool, are having our own office premiere party. yay for workplace bonding over a show that rocks the workplace!!!
: )
Love all those cookies! I am staying at home, locking myself in my parents’ room, and watching it. All by myself. In the dark. So I can take EVERYTHING in. And calling my Dunderhead BFF during the commercials, of course.
I’m hosting the official party in Chicago! We’ve got a box full of Herr’s Chips, M&Ms, margaritas and Nifty Giftys for all!
SO… this is officially the best way to celebrate my 30th Birthday! Office party at my house with all my buddies. Whoohooo I can’t wait, happy birthday to me. :)
OMG I am so excited!! I’m not really doing anything special, just watching :) Tanster, I feel for you… you’re going to have to moderate a gazillion comments… maybe we should just all refrain from writing anything. Haha. That would be pretty hard though.
WOOOHOOO
“Same old Michael Scott,new and improved”
The Dwight bobblehead cookie wins!!
It’s finally here! I wish we were having a party, but I’ll be watching it at home with the hubby, after a dinner of Big Tuna Noodle Casserole and Angela’s Double Fudge Brownies for dessert.
The burned foot cookies are hilarious! Got a good chuckle out of those - thanks for sharing! :)
Who wants to bet that this $700 billion bailout plan will be approved right around 9/8c, taking over all of our regular programming? Grr!
For all who can’t watch it live, I feel your pain as well. I have Band Rehearsal 6-9 to learn a new drill for homecoming tomorrow. And our band teacher is a nut.
I have a huge grudge against chilis now, because they no longer serve awesome blossoms.
I am ordering in some Chili’s and getting my Office on!!! The 25th is FINALLY here! Thank God for OfficeTally because I never would have made it without! Thanks, Tanster!
My co-worker just called in sick, so i have to work until 8pm central time, and it takes me 45 minutes to get home. So yeah, I’ll be celebrating with a single tear…
This sucks! So is the Office still going to be posted on Hulu at 2am? I need to know if I can watch it ASAP, even if it isn’t as it happens! So depressing.
Tanster - we could really use a countdown clock on here! :)
I’m working from 5:30-10:30 pm tonight, so I’ll also be taping The Office premiere and watching it later…more than once! I’m also taping Survivor so I’ve got a long night ahead of me!
I’m having a Office party with some friends tonight. The appetizers include: Soft Pretzels w/ assorted toppings, a Dwight stress ball in jello, and Nog-a-sakis. I’m so excited!!
Tanster–I really appreciate all of the stuff you’ve been posting, especially the midweek tally!
