i used to go to those clubs 4 hours for like 300$ they gave you champagne which sucked and everyone that was working in club was usually more wasted than the patrons, i said f-that rather stay home, besides champagne gives me a head ache and the bloom of the mary jane, well i take drug test yearly so home is my destiny

I figure they'll steal the truck from a rest area just outside of town.

Working on getting to a balcony to watch the fireworks at midnight. Right after midnight I'll be asking my wife to marry me again. Hope she says yes again too!

Cheers to everyone! Hope you all have a happy and safe weekend. Happy 2017!

Going to a friend's house at 6PM, just three couples. Our friend's are making dinner for us, we'll have a little wine, and get home around 9PM or so. Nothing too wild, that's for sure.

Just got back from the liquor store where I got a 1.75L bottle of Remy Martin Cognac. About 10:00 I'll put a baby bottle nipple on it, lay down on my bed, turn the stereo on to some soft tunes and drift off into the land of Dionysus.

Wrapping up GWiz's car. Timing has been reset, now putting the pieces back on to fire again. After that, bleed the brakes, bleed the clutch, flush the tranny and diff and we're golden.

I'm at the house with the in laws watching the Fiesta Bowl. I personally think New Year's is overrated.

Funny how as you age, your priorities become so different.

Anyone have any plans as exciting as mine???
Wait, seriously?!?!

I just went to Walmarket. Beat that.

Chinese food take out a couple of hours ago for the three bachelors club. tv and watching the snow fall. It's going to be a messy drive home for a lot of drunks and sober party-ers alike.

Am still recovering from surgery so no booze (not that I care all that much anyway ) and certain foodz are still on the 'no' list...so............

Stayed home and made strip steaks with demi-glaze, oven roasted potatoes, and cranberry sauce (it's like Christmas v2.0 )...for dessert: cheesecake with chocolate sauce, peppermint whipped cream, and candy cane pieces as garnish.
