Oh, another good costume, though a bit more esoteric and maybe not everyone would get it - wear your wetsuit, carry around a bucket, label the bucket "bukkit" and go as the lolrus that is floating around everywhere.

Artemis - 2008-10-31 12:37 PM The micro department is having a Halloween party.  I didn't think it would be that big of a deal.  They decorate the whole lab for Halloween.  Experiments gone wrong, fake lab rats and body parts, beakers, dry ice.  It's crazy!  Apparently, they've been working on it for two weeks!

Yeah, the executive suite has been decorated by crazy admin. A handful of people dressed up today.

On of the girls in my lab has a decent Palin outfit on.  She's a little embarrassed that she had a red blazer in her closet with shoulder pads.

We had a week of stuff... here at work... decoration competition, pumpkin carving, and now costume. Out CFO dressed up like a nerd (think Erkle but white), CCO had a full scuba gear kit on, they make millions a year... pretty funny to see during a town hall that was webcast across the entire world.

If someone dressed up here, I'm pretty sure my boss would force them to change or go home. He's super cool about most stuff, but hates 'stupid' stuff... and Halloween falls in the 'stupid' category.



Well being that he's the CFO of a Fortune 20 company... He can pretty much do as he pleases without much wrath.

99.9% of the time you will see him in a suit and tie walking of the the mohagany wing of the building. It is just a way to get people relaxed and to enjoy their job a little. There is absolutlely nothing wrong with it what-so-ever.

People wanted me to come in wearing a full cycling kit. Maybe next year.

Yeah... I don't get that one at all... Guess I am not so much in the loop.

These seem like ideal conditions for an excellent story if not perhaps the world's best long run. I say go for it. Live a little!

The work you put in now will not help you a week from now. Don't worry if you skip it.

So you're going out both Friday and Saturday night? I'd say either go out and get blitzed tonight, and move the run to Sunday (and don't get wasted on Saturday too), or go out tonight, stay clean, sleep in, run and go out on Saturday and get blitzed.

I don't know how some people do it - get wasted and then train the morning after. I went on a bike ride once, after getting pretty drunk the night before and it was awful.

Maybe it came out too harsh. But one week away you are more prone to over train than under. Getting some workouts in will be key... but the work you put in months ago for this half-mary will impact the run more than this week or next. Just a fact about the way training works.

Some of us have more HTFU in us than most.

Actually, I think, no offense to anyone here, that it's kinda stupid...not a question of HTFU. If you have an important workout or race, seems silly to trash it with a night of stupidity.

Oh, I'd still go out for a little while - just don't stay out til 3 am and don't get plastered. That way you can still have fun and still get in a good run. That's usually what I do.

Maybe some of us have slight masochistic tendencies and like to hurt.  Makes the bad times that much easier.

"Man this run sucks, but at least I'm not hungover like that one time..."

Plus, I like drinking.  Not gonna pass up a night out with friends because "I gotta run tomorrow."
