Yep, yours truly, intrepid jazz man and man about town spent his New Year's Eve in relative peace and tranquility.

I went over to a friends house for a small gathering where we ate dinner, hung out a bit, talked politics and college football and watched Maryland beat up on Tennessee (Fear the Turtle!). I did get to sit in on what was described to me as "girl talk" which was fun and instructional. :)

I left the soiree early mostly because I was tired after a fairly long work day and also because I had to be up early for work. I could have stayed longer, but I knew I'd be a bear in the morning if I didn't scoot when I did. So I went home, found a bit of dessert, watched "Die Hard", puttered around on the computer until the ball dropped, then went to bed, happy and content.

All in all, it was incredibly boring and probably more than my share of pedestrian, but it wasn't bad. It was life at my speed the way I like to live it.

Happy New Year All. :)
 
Happy new year, JMJ!

That still doesn't beat my NYE last year- sitting at home with my (then) roomate and her fiance. I was literally bored to tears. I vowed that the next NYE would be better, and it was. :)
 
I sat at home and watched the Monster Garage marathon on TLC.

You know that I live a pretty rich life vicariously just by reading about the neat stuff you get into. ;)
 
Neat stuff? What neat stuff?

IS my life actually more exciting to others than it is to me?
 
Mine isn't.

But check out this Limmo that was turned into a fire engine!

Yes it is, at least to me.

See, you have the ability to go out and have fun in ways I've never been able to, so I always enjoy reading what yuo're up to. :)
 
the highlight of my evening was eatting chinese(take out), other than that I worked on a website all night. Fun stuff huh?
 
Uh, I was in the bathtub when midnight rang.

I spent the night alone.


Pfft. :p

Yep. I had pizza, but I think I would have rather had Chinese. Orange chicken, yes, yes!

I got some booze, drank a bit, got into a fight, went home. Sounds like you had more fun than I did.:D

Now that's something that just should never be. It just screams of wrongness, rainy. :(

BgMma - Well, it wouldn't have been a bad t hing had you won with KO, right? I hope you're feeling all right this morning.
 
once i grew up enough not to have to get laid every time i walked into a bar new year's eve celebrations have bored the crap out of me. there were several small gatherings that i could have gone to last night but chose to stay home. cooked up some sketti, drank a couple of turkey and cokes, tried out the new bong i bought myself for my birthday and crashed at about 11.

my head's fine this morning. how 'bout you?
 
I believe at the stroke of midnight I was out here in emi's office, teasing her daughter while we waited to take the computer back over.



Happy New Year Jimmi :kiss:
 
Btw I had to say t hat I think your new AV is too precious for words and the one that storm has up is probably the best one I've ever seen him use. :)
 
It was a very quiet evening here at home for the Peppermint family.

Of course Mommy and Daddy Peppermint were barely speaking to each other so that may have attributed to the quietness.
;)

Happy New Year!!!
:kiss:

Nah, almost a fist fight. I was kinda dating this old friend of mine and he got really drunk and said some hateful shit about me while we were trying to enjoy NYE. I told him I was too young to waste my life listening to him put me down one minute and then compliment me the next.

Maybe I shouldn't have dated an older man who is just a bit crazy. This is no joke, Jimmie. *sigh*

I know it's not a joke, hon. It was just a rather lame attempt to get a smile out of you.

Oddly enough, my reconsideration in life was about getting engaged to a younger woman who was crazy. ;)

I think maybe it's the crazy part that gets us in trouble...

I am telling you! He is the first man I have ever seen get drunk and insist that he isn't from this planet.

You did make me smile, though. I think I would have preferred getting into fisticuffs instead of three weeks of mental damage that I sustained.

Now I'm trying to think of the ways I have fun. Are they unusual or something?

Psssst! I'm trying very hard to deliver a complement here! Don't be paranoid about it. ;)
