Happy new year, everyone!
(I am writing this entry at the Cyberstop while I kill 30 minutes. Poker starts at 8...but dag nabbit, is this keyboard loud! Apparently all the other customers have managed to use their PCs without typing, because the only chatter in the room is coming from MY WORKSTATION. The space bar is especially loud...IMightHaveToTypeTheEntireEntryAsIfItWereOneBigLongVariableName...butIdigress)
Spent NYE at home. Shawn's sister, brother in law, niece, and nephew (along with Walker, Carson, Tim, and itsabouttimedc) came to our place and we all had a wonderful time. Shawn really put out the spread, too. He even made sushi, and he mixed the wasabi in a concentration that would remove paint from a car. Just the way I like it. I was worried that the kids would put a damper on the drunken debauchery I had hoped to engage in for NYE. They did, but I had fun anyway. However I did have to go out to the balcony periodically to curse. We played a few games. I was THIS CLOSE to winning Pretty, Pretty Princess when the niece (the little vixen!) got a lucky roll and took my crown away from me. I had it all...the ring, the bracelet, the necklace, AND the earrings. I was on my way until I got the black ring, which apparently prevents me from being the pretty, pretty princess I was destined to be. Damn black ring...
The nephew kept body slamming people and bringing them food. After doing a swan dive right into my stomach, he presented me with a handful of smoked Gouda. He's got taste, that kid.
Later that evening, I decided I needed some Adult Entertainment and headed to the Eagle to meet copperred. Except for the company it was a huge waste of time. I was drinking red wine earlier that evening and was fine. But the one drink I had at the Eagle put me under the table.
OK...poker time. How was your new year? Tell me! Tell me!
