What are your plans for the turning of the year? Are you spending it with family, having a get-together with friends, hitting a club or pub, or just improvising as you go?

My plans fell through at the last minute. I'd planned to hit a nice restaurant with several friends, but most of them have other plans, and the place is closing early. Times Square will be way too crowded and not worth the trip. So my evening is pretty much up in the air at this point.

We plan to stay home and probably watch the festivities on tv while we drink ourselves into the next year.

Las Vegas is just too freaking nuts at the New Year.. we would rather be safe at home.

Deth and I also rented a bunch of good Bonds - Octopussy, Man With the Golden Gun, Dr No and You Only Live Twice. Sadly, my Blockbuster only has Goldfinger on VHS and I am allergic to VHS.

Me, Pesco, and a couple of friends are going to this place called Main Event, which has Bowling, Pool, Laser Tag, an Arcade, and Poker/Blackjack. I plan on stinking up the place with my lame bowling and pool skills. And also eating a lot, because I like to do that.

I have to work til 11... a friend of mine is probably going to her boyfriend's show, but only because his amp won't fit in his car, so she has to take hers. I don't remember if she said anything about sticking around for that. I plan on calling a boy after work to see if I can go to his house. Him and his buddies are just going to be messing around out in BFE out there, so I figure I'll try to shake him up a bit.

Subway. I worked the overnight at Subway. 10pm-6am.

Hooray for double time? Thats about the only good thing I got out of it.. It was fun throwing people out of the store, though. Admittedly I was fairly entertained the entire night. My co-workers thought it was hell, however.

I had dinner at Hooters, and then spent the night watching The Vision of Escaflowne.
I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl, we ate lobster, drank piƱa coladas. At sunset, we made love like sea otters. That was a pretty good day. Why couldn't I get that day over, and over?

At the party we went to, while everyone was doing the whole lame 'new years kiss' shit, me and my buddy recited the entire theme to Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.

...We annoyed a lot of people, which was the plan.
