OK, so what's everybody up to tonight to kiss aught five goodbye?
« on: December 31, 2005, 10:18:31 AM »
Bored.  Curious.

Heading out for a GR Griffins hockey game with swmbo and the grandkids in about an hour.  Be back home by 10:30 or so.  Got to pick up oldest son's girlfriend's 14 year old on the way and then bring those 3 and ourselves back to Grampster's Keep.

Got a bottle of bubbly grape juice for 16 and two 14 year olds.  I'll have a glass of 50/50 Irish Cream and Bushmills.  (Couldn't find a bottle of Jameson)  SWMBO will have a cup of tea.  The kids will then promptly eat everything in the house.

Then I'll check this thread and see what's going on across the fruited plain.

Happy New Year to ya'll.

Doing web stuff right now and then will have kids coming over tonight. It's an annual tradition that they all come to Aunt Barb's for New Year's Eve but they're all growing up or moving away, so this year, I'm down to just 3.

Watching the Red Wings at 7:00, and then probably falling asleep shortly thereafter.

Since I'm not going to be around for my birthday, Grandma wants to do it tonite.  Started doing that back when tehy were in Arizona during my birthday.

Then, depending on how long that goes, maybe a fire at my friends house.

Oops, forgot about the Wings.  They'll probably get thrown in there too.  Gotta watch a real hockey team now and then, as Tech always finds a new way to lose.

Amateur Night.

Well even when I did inhib, I didn't go out.

I normally sleep thru all this, or find myself looking up from a book; something I am working on and it dawns on  me the calendar has changed.   *shrug*

I have DeMille's "Up Country" to read. Trying to get caught up on personal reading before Spring Semester starts.

Tomorrow is "dump the backpack and sort thru all the crap the Fall Semester deposited in it".

Have to go, about to finish "Atlas Shrugged" again. Lets see - seven days and 6 books read. I'm getting there...

I have managed to write 11 "works"  in the last 8 days- now to edit and figure out what to do with them...

Staying in my house to avoid the drunk drivers, doing my year end accounting, filing, and other tax prep, and probably spending the night babbling to myself because of that one thread I started....

Four grandkids (Wesley, Jonathan, Garrett and Lindsey) are staying with us as their parents go color pin bowling.  We'll just stay in as we always do.  Last time we stayed up until midnight was New Years Eve 1999.

We've found that the new year always gets here whether we wait up for it or not. Smiley

Going out to eat at with the wife, then a movie afterward- she wants to see the Johnny Cash movie. After that, we are going to the neighbors house for the rest of the night.

A couple of mugs of black & tan and then off to bed so I can get up and watch the Bucs crush the Saints on The Lord's Day.

Backing up nearly a quarter Terabyte of 3d files, rendered stills, and video sequences to DVD.

Nothing different from any other night.  Eat dinner, check the internet, play Scrabble online, go to bed.

Having dinner with friends.  Likely in bed by 11pm.

I'm gonna get drunk and coked up then drive around town shooting my AK in the air.  Then it's on back home where I'll shoot up some horse, get a nice buzz going and fall asleep in front of the fireplace. Smiley

Drinking chai tea and working on this goofy website. Wouldn't be so bad if I weren't incompetent, but that keeps getting in my way.

www.firearmsalliance.org

Also, updated on for my buddy who does advanced training.

www.michigantraining.com

Still have work to do on both of them but I'm done for today.

Way ahead of you folks, already rang this one in here in Bahrain. I guess I can watch the ball drop over my morning coffee. Nothing exciting for me, just standing duty waiting for all of my drunken flock to wander back aboard.

Best wishes, may the New Year bring you all that you hope and work for. I suppose that since I am 2 hours into '06 I had better get moving on making some New Year's resolutions myself so I will have something to work for.

Absolutely nothing remarkable here, either. Been under the weather so just sitting here with tea and hot cider and oatmeal. Bleh. Not sure if I'll last until midnight.

Basically, I'm just thrilled to get this wretch of a year overwith. Lots and lots of very bad things happened, and most people I know seem to express the same sentiment. I hate new years because all it ever does is prompt me to uncontrollably take stock of those bad things. Who wants to remember all that crap, on with the now!

I hope '06 holds nothing but the best of what each of you hope for!

Been there, done that. 1976 Great lakes, Il.

Then in 1979 I recall being one of the drunken flock. But we stumbled more than wandered across the brow. My buddy "Rooter" fell over the "Subject to Search" sign and knocked it and himself over. I can still visualize that. I could go on for a while with stories of both evenings, but I won't.

It's 18:05 CST and I'm already contemplating a long nap.  SWMBO drug me to Target about 11 this morning, and I'm exhausted. Fortunately I picked up Serenity in widescreen so after my nap...maybe upon awakening sometime around 0300 local time, I'll watch it.

Happy New Year y'all.

Regards,
Rabbit.
