			<description>I already have a bunch of presents I want to get my housemate Ben for Christmas, but if one of you is looking for something, you should consider getting him a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.myroombud.com/&quot;&gt;Roomba Animal Cover&lt;/a&gt;. </description>

			<title>eHome 05 Holiday Party</title>
			<description>&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/mattgoyer/72900696/&quot; title=&quot;Photo Sharing&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://static.flickr.com/35/72900696_1d56e743b5.jpg&quot; width=&quot;500&quot; height=&quot;375&quot; alt=&quot;eHome 2005 Holiday Party&quot; border=&quot;0&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;P&gt;
Last Thursday was the eHome Holiday party. Here&apos;s a few of us leaving, 
left to right:
&lt;P&gt;
Mark&apos;s date&lt;br&gt;
Tom, program manager&lt;br&gt;
Mark, designer&lt;br&gt;
Nishant, tester&lt;br&gt;
Katrina, writer&lt;br&gt;
Veronica, program manager&lt;br&gt;
Ryan, developer&lt;br&gt;
&lt;P&gt;
The night was actually a lot of fun. We started with a pre-funk at the Chapel and after a drink headed down to the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sfhomeworld.org/&quot;&gt;Science Fiction Museum&lt;/a&gt; for the official festivities. While we were stymied by only two free drinks, the DJ this year was much better than last year&apos;s 80&apos;s cover band. After gossiping with co-workers for three hours a substantial number of us headed off to Neighbors were we partied into the fee hours of the morning. I think the last of us trickled out of Neighbors at 3am. The next day we all took advantage of the &apos;free&apos; morning off we got and some didn&apos;t even make it in at all (I made it in). Next year we&apos;ll all have to remember to read MSN Careers, &lt;a href=&quot;http://msn.careerbuilder.com/custom/msn/careeradvice/viewarticle.aspx?articleid=435&amp;SiteId=cbmsnhp4435&amp;sc_extcmp=JS_435_home1&amp;cbRecursionCnt=1&amp;cbsid=804fc71f0aa4408591233a09f3ccccd7-187730082-rn-1&quot;&gt;Office Party Etiquette&lt;/a&gt; before heading out. </description>

			<description>Silly me, I left my cell phone in a cab Saturday night. Fortunately, the cab driver answered when I called on Sunday, and I got my phone back. Thanks so much!</description>
