Since all of you are posting on a Website on New Years - What is your excuse

By the way, does watching that show make you want to drink a LOT more rum and coke? Or smoke weed? Or even eat hot dogs off the charcoal grill? Please tell me I'm not alone.

 

We had a small party of relatives here. Supper then they all went home.

Wife drank two glasses of wine and retired at 10PM told me to wake her up at Midnight. :shock: to bring in the new Year! :thumb:

I am up waiting on my daughter to get in from a church function. Going outside in a few minutes to help the neighbor bust some firworks with his kids and offer him and Egg nog and So CO.

happy new year!

 

Man, the fireworks started and several hundred geese just took off from the pond. They were all shook up.

 

Neighbor's firworks canceled due to wet yard. Oh well

Happy New Year anyway! Cheers!

 

Different celebration this year....Mexican neighbors are shooting MUCH fewer fireworks than usual, and the ghetto fabulous fools in expensive townhomes are shooting all manner of guns. Last year they limited it to a couple handguns. This year they've got 9MM, 45, 38s, and SHOTGUNS. A couple more drinks and I'm going to return fire.

 

My two weimeraners are scared of fireworks so I have two quivering >90lb dogs, a sleeping wife, a bottle of Jim Beam Black, headphones with some 311 and a laptop. I'm good to go.

 

Pensacola isn't as excited exciting as Pennsylvania

 

Same here. Same ages also. Come Tuesday though...it's on down in N.O.

 

The wife decided to visit her sister in Chi-town after Christmas, and was SUPPOSED to be back in time for supper today. Flight from Chi-town to Memphis was delayed, therefore she missed the flight from Memphis to NOLA. She finally left Memphis at 10:30, arrived in NOLA right after midnight. She said God must have made her miss the transfer just so she could see the fireworks in NOLA as she was flying over Lake Pontchartrain. I advised her to spend the night with her mom in Metairie to avoid the drunks on the road after midnight. I guess we'll celebrate tomorrow when she arrives. She better bring me a present from Chicago!

 

I think I will win this one... On a business trip... In Maui! You all are asleep, and it is not even midnight here yet!

Down sides: I will be working while the Tigers stomp the Irish so I will have to watch it on tape when I get back on the 9th. I am basically missing the entire week of bowl games include the MNC. Oh yeah, throw in the working from sun up to sun down for a week with no time to enjoy any of the wonderful things here. Let's see... nine hours in a plane to see other people having a blast. Yuck.
