Well, Elvis, I hung out at your lovely site!

I moved to this town a little over a year ago, and I really haven't made any friends like my pals back home, so I was a homebody for the evening. A guy from school did invite me out, but I'd already been drinking and didn't want to drive anywhere.

* Drove 700 miles in an attempt to start the New Year right.
* One hour of the drive was in the driving snow.
* One hour of the drive was on frozen roads going about 15 miles an hour.
* One hour of the drive was parked on I-10 waiting for a two car/five 18 wheeler pile-up to clear the highway.
* Thanks to acrob@t, some great U2 boots kept me company.
* Got to my destination at 4:00 am
* To anyone who suggested I do this, it better be worth it.

And what, z edge was here, in chat? Are you and Dennis coming to Dallas this weekend Chris?

Happy New Year everyone!

We had another family over who also has 2 little kids, drank wine and played Trivial Pursuit while the kids ran amok, then let them stay up till midnight and share a sip of champagne.

Pretty boring but I loved it.

Happy New Year!

Well, I had fun last night. Nothing extraordinary, but hung out with some close friends, drank wine, played games, sang the Bono part on Numb while my friend sang Edge's,

. Then we went off to a party at a former proffessor of mine's house and drank waaaaaay too much wine and went home at 1:30am when I started seeing double.

Not good. Ugh. (The hangover part).

-Attended 3 different apartment parties in Manhattan. I guess you can call it party hopping...or something like that.

-Had a great time with friends, drank way too much, and have the hangover to prove it.

-For the third party, I went up to the roof of a midtown apartment building and got a nice view of Times Square.

-The funniest was the second party in uptown Manhattan, where we walked in and knew no one there. But it rocked!

A solid New Year's Eve. I would give the night about a 7 rating.

Happy New Year!
