It's just not advertised.

Today was my annual office Christmas party. Although I always wish we had parties a la "The Office" that included five bottles of vodka and an iPod, instead we all bring in a shitload of homemade food and then do what's sometimes called a Chinese Gift Exchange in the middle of the day. This consists of my two bosses going to Wal-Mart the night before and buying random cheap gifts for everyone, then wrapping them all in anonymous packages. On the day of the party, everyone draws a number, and the lowest number picks first while the higher numbers get to steal gifts from the lower numbers.

ANYWAY. Someone who drew a lower number than me picked a gift that was a holiday polar bear soap dispenser with matching hand towels (I LOVE polar bears, omg). I promptly spazzed my FACE off and practically LEAPT ACROSS THE TABLE, yelling, "OH MY GOD, MINE MINE MINE GIMME YAY!!"

Everyone else in the room: ...

[livejournal.com profile] shleemeri is always telling me I have Brendon tendencies? But yeah. I really am the Brendon Urie of my office.

I'm also crazy obsessed with this song at the moment: Don't Ya Know - Moonbabies

For some reason, I've convinced myself that Patrick Stump has this song somewhere on his iPod. Maybe this is because, for various reasons, I'm in a very Patrick state of mind lately, idk.

Tomorrow night, Golden Compass. I don't even care if I'll hate it, I must seeeee it.

Um, your reaction was totally rational. POLAR BEARS!

Who are these Moonbabies and why are they so catchy?

I love polar bears so, so much, seriously. Another reason I love His Dark Materials! \o/

They're this band my husband found online, and he downloaded their album a few months ago. They sound a lot like Snow Patrol, I think, which is probably why I like them so much!

Here's another of my favs: Take Me to the Ballroom (http://www.sendspace.com/file/upgi0j)

How could you not leap over the table? They're bears! From the north pole!

I have this kind of reaction when I see anything with sheep. I love sheep. They're so dumb and fluffy and I used to chase them around the field at my gran's house XD

The song is very fun, thank you for the link :)

Mostly it's because I'd seen them at Wal-Mart and had debated buying them myself, and then suddenly YAYZ FREE POLAR BEARS!

The song is awesome, I'm glad you like it!
