My Pregnancy and my Husband's Xmas Party

My husband has this evening his company's Xmas party. What is it with this party that makes me feel uneasy?
Bottom line: What is it with company parties? What's their point?
Should I be glad that at least they don't have team buildings that last through the entire weekend? Why is it that companies feel the need to take their employees away from their families and put them together in a place with booze and loud music? I know, the employees should socialize!
Does anyone ever "socialize" at these parties? I think good colleagues remain good colleagues and people you don't normally speak to, remain just that: people you don't speak to.
Actually, these are just the pointless lamentations of a housewife spending the evening alone, worrying that her husband might get too drunk and maybe find one of his colleagues irresistible...
To tell the whole truth, I had for years company parties and even team buildings. But it was me. I know exactly what I want and that is him. Does he remember me? Does he still want me? Am I what he wants?
Sometimes I feel so strong and I think I know the answer to it all... But not this evening. This evening, I have my moment of weakness... My moment of surrender. Surrendering to disturbing thoughts that I don't normally indulge.
Yes! I should turn off the TV and go read something! I know what! 50 shades... :) That will work like a charm, changing my trail of thoughts. I will sleep like a baby in no time!
Why is it that facile romances help me fall asleep faster than anything? It must be the easy and effortless text. It must be why other books that I read never work like this, they make me wonder and capture my interest. I could stay up all night reading them... On the other hand, I couldn't stay up two hours reading 50 shades, which makes it perfect for this evening!
