Aims and I are going to our friends' annual NYE Get Fucked Up Party.
It became a tradition whilst we were in SoCal. S and J (aforementioned friends) held a NYE party that promised nothing more than booze, booze, booze and booze. Wackiness was destined to ensue.
So solid is the tradition that when, a couple of years ago, S and J were contemplating actually NOT BEING IN TOWN for NYE, another friend said "Okay, but you're still throwing the Party."
"But we won't be in town," they sensibly replied.
"Doesn't matter," they were told. "We'll break into your house and you will still get to host the Party. But, by God, host the Party you will!"
And so they did. Host. Not get burgled.
This year they have the attraction of Now With 100% More Hot Tub!
It should be fun.
Would need a flask first.
Go. Buy. A. Flask.
Seriously. I mean, that's just logic right there.
That looks yummy, Matt. Please be super careful if you decide to drive. I prefer to avoid driving on NYE.
Hey, my 40th is coming up....someone could gift me with a flask.
Well....it could happen.
Tonight Matt is playing at t local restaurant from 6 to 10. possibly he will join the other band from 10 to 12. I am eating at 6 with friends at the restaurant, not sure how I will make it to midnight.

Dinner should be very good - NYE menu isn't up on their site, but the normal dinner menu is up

Oh, I'm not supposed to drink at all because of my cholesterol meds, Laura. I'll break the doctor's orders for one glass of dessert wine to mark the occasion, but there will be no tipsiness from that, let alone a repeat of last year's rusty nail/absinthe/goldschläger liver mangling.
I'm actually driving to Racine for a super swanky dinner party tonight. In fact, I need to shower and put on clothes and leave v. soon for that party. I made crab cheesecake and shrimp phyllo cups. I was designated the fish course. Seafood works, right?
I'm at the alltel place trying to sort my billing issues. Looks like they are giving me new numbers. WTF. They gave me prepaid numbers and now they need to remedy that so I can get any sort of customer service. Feh.
