The Bunny Dance and Much More

Sadly Catherine and Philip were let go and Thorston was moving back to Germany so for their final night, they went to dinner with their team, and we decided to join them after wards at Hogans. With their bosses there as well as most of our co-workers we did not feel to guilty being out on a Thursday night. We had a good bit of craic there and many Jeager shots with Thorston since he is a mad yoke for lovin those and I was the only one convinced it would be a good idea to join in. Before leaving the office that day Sean caught a photo of Thorston hugging Karen and it was so cute since he is 6'-7" and she is 5'-5" that even on her tippy toes and him bending way over he was still much taller when she hugged him goodbye.

When they kicked everyone out at half twelve, we headed to Bruxelles since they serve until late. By this time our group went from 30 or so people down to about 12. Franchesca and Tullia and I proceeded to have about an hour long conversation in Spanish since Sean's pick up line (Muy bonita, deseas sexo?) came up and I found out Fran had lived in Spain. See Mom, my Spanish classes have paid off, I can hold conversations and teach guys some sleazy pick up lines! We were all thrown out of there at 2:30 and headed up Grafton Street where all the street performers are. Tom paid your man on the street a few quid and he let him play a few songs. As long as the group of us kept putting money in the guitar case, we could keep playing. Glenn also too a turn on playing the guitar. Tullia was mad about the videos with her camera but mostly you heard her and I singing "choobie, choobie" along with the lyrics which is a Tulliaism. She also caught me dancing on video being silly which is where the "bunny dance" was born and is now frequently requested at the pub. By 4:30 we headed to the cabs after many songs so we could get some sleep before Friday morning. At least all of us were miserable together, because misery loves company! Even the bosses were tired! Those videos are now infamous and the head boss man even got a kick out of watching me show off the dance moves in the office over lunch. Fun to be had by all even during the sad times. When you cannot cry just laugh or laugh so hard you cry.
