what are your plans for New Years Eve?
 

Hubby surprised me with a night at the Hyatt and their big NYE bash complete with buffet and Champagne toast at Midnight

2 different bands playing a plethera of music

Check in is 3pm the 31st and 2 pm the 1st


I even think there is a fireworks display at midnight


should be really fun and romantic

I'll jerk it.

of course you will

It's my oldest daughter's birthday. I'll be camped out in my bedroom while the basement is filled with screaming 6th grade girls.

And why not?

Nothing. I'm usually in bed by 10 or 11 for some reason.

oh I feel for you!

I remember those days. My girl is now 17 and for her birthday this year she took her grandma to a salon and they got all pampered up

she didn't want a party

but what a neat day for a birthday

Just hangin' out with my GF.

Can I come? Your daughter and I share a birthday.

The Majestic Steakhouse... it's Slayer's 21st birthday.

oh cool

how is he?

Tell him happy birthday

Can I come? Slayer and I share a birthday.

Working. Playing Auld Lang whatever when the clock hits midnight. And trying to come up with a new arrangement for that song using the closing SNL groove.

I have no plans. There's a shocker.

And you can't even jerk it. Haha.

Not sure what I'm doing. My dad mentioned getting together for dinner and a few beers.

I'll be working, unfortunately. Missing my own party.

I'm working on it. I invited someone over to get drunk with me, but I'm pretty sure he won't. Worth a try though. I hate being alone on New Years.

Did you invite "him?"

He's good.. he lurks here from time to time. He's in college, getting ready for law school and spending every second of the day in one of those college omg-there's-not-enough-time-in-the-day-to-spend-with-you relationships. ;)


Uh.... okay! You can compare beards.

don't forget about the dance-off

wow, it doesn't seem like he should be in college

time sure flys doesn't it

Yes. I shot him a message. He'll have plans, or won't feel like doing anything, or something, I'm sure.

oh god, I don't really dance

and I don't want to be the entertainment :)

telling people on CP to calm down
Clark doesn't need to get in a big hurry

Have enough to drink, and you could be great entertainment and not remember it. :thumb:

gf and i are going to a nye dinner and then to a nye party bash it will be a fun night, but i'll be the DD and get my drink on when we get home.

The usual beer, food, football and fireworks at midnight.

This is the first year of people using "regifting" as a standard meaning of giving away gifts you recieved, and now it is NYE. I keep thinking people were going to new york exchange when I see it. The last time a phrase caught on this fast was "walk off homerun"

Goin' to the Armed Forces Bowl, and then findin' some sort of friends party to go to. Air Force VS Houston Should be entertaining.

I'll stay up & watch the Twilight Zone marathon on the SciFi Network.

I've got about 50 friends coming over and we are going to do the normal NYE party thing. lots of drinking talking loud music, karaoke, food, GH world tour, finished up with someone providing drunken entertainment. It should be good fun.

probably walk downtown on Mass St in Lawrence and bar hop.

I'm old and married. I don't do amateur nights anymore.

Early dinner out (this year it's habachi steak/lobster), then champagne with the wife by the fireplace at midnight.

We're taking the subway to downtown Los Angeles (no drinking and driving for us). We're going to dinner around 9pm, then hitting the bar above the Disney Theater (great view).

After that, we're probably heading over to Nokia Live to see STP for a bit, then we'll probably hit a few more bars. I'd like to be home by 2pm.

Damn, that's 17 hours. I hope you have lots of cocaine.

ROFL

I meant to say 2am.

ROFL

Im going to get really drunk and puke in a urinal...tip the bathroom attendant a lot for not telling on me...spray axe body spray on me and attempt to make out with a bustacious skank at midnight with vomit still in my mouf

I think I've done that at some point, but I certainly didn't plan it out in advance. LMAO

and if you do, can I have some?

When I move to Kansas City we need to become friends.

Just makes sure you drive.

BeauWillie doesn't believe in cars. He's likely to pick you up in a 40 year-old beater that won't make it down the block.

Actually, I broke down and bought a 2004 BMW 5 series. Dumbest thing I've ever done. The last two cars I had both had more miles than it, and were 8-10 years older, American made. I had a 1996 Dodge Stratus and a 1994 Ford Taurus for the last 4 years until I bought this stupid nazi machine. Believe it or not, these things were even MORE dependable. And when shit went out, it was 1/2 to fix.

I've spent $1700 in repairs on it in the last two weeks alone and I've only had it 4 months. Water pump, radiator, fan blade, drive belt, radiator hose, brakes, etc. What a huge waste of money. I'm even more of an advocate against buying a car worth more than $3000 now. I've sold out, and had to buy a car that didn't hinder me from getting 'giner. Is it worth it? Nope.

I'm going to watch the Sun Bowl. I love watching the (usually sunny!) Sun Bowl. It is almost a tradition, one could say, ever since the heady days of the year A.D. 1,999. Minnesota (Golden Gophers) versus Oregon (Ducks) is the perfect Sun Bowl in my opinion because both games were great and I wish they could play each other again in a Sun Bowl sometime because they each hold a win over the other in those great games I was talking about earlier. Reuben Droughns was sick as all hell in the year A.D. 1,999 in both the literal and figurative sense and like I said both games between those two teams I mentioned were hella rad.

I'll bring the car, you bring sluts.

I'm working. Glad you'll be getting laid though.

You missed it.

Hadn't gotten so drunk I yarfed since...hell...I can't even remember.

Anyway, two weeks ago friday I got off work, decided to have a few at the bar (8-11 AM.) Went home. Showered (no, beer FIRST.) Tried to lay down for a few and get some sleep. Didn't happen.

3 pm my ride shows up for the work Christmas party. We get lost and get there at about 4. After a full belly of breakfast beer I wasn't hungry and didn't think about it.

The party ended at about 12 AM. I was fine until then. One of the 2 other guys I went with had already failed and called the Mrs. to deliver him from evil.

Apparently at 12:30 it was just my buddy, me (passed out in lawn chair in basement,) and my boss (passed out in chair right next to me.) When the buddy's wife showed up to take us home I guess I made it about 3/4ths the way through the yard and dumped 2 gallons of rented beer.

That, not so much a big deal. Apparently he's one of those guys huge into his yard though and this was back when it was cold as all hell. He didn't think much of it but that $3it froze real quick in about a foot n' half circle in his front yard.

:drool:

I'm going to a bash at a club down in Portland. Should be a good time.

I've already got the restraining order being processed.

I'm am gonna try something new. Stay completely sober... wake up the next day feeling great as opposed to wishing for death (or at least a lack of consciousness). Actually do something good with a paid day off.

going to a friends for some appetizers and dinner. Probably have a few beers, maybe a glass of wine, and will be as soon as possible after midnight.

Hanging out with my wife here at the house. I plan to go out and buy Steak and Crab again this year, along with a nice bottle of wine. I have ZERO desire to head out to the bar on "amateur night."

Going to Des Moines so my kids can have Christmas with my wife's family. It will be pretty low-key.

the wife(doesn't drink) will drive her and i to some friends house, where several of our friends will get together.
we'll eat supper, visit, etc.
after midnight, the wife(doesn't drink) will drive me home.

and then i'll tell her, as i turn out the light.
i say, "my darling, you were wonderful tonight"

sec

You should have PM'd me. I'd have advised you to lease a new Infinity. They're going for little down (something around $2000) and $349 a month. You'd have had a brand new car for the next 36-42 months and you may have been able to write it off, depending on your line of work.

Buying a 4 year old car is always asking for trouble. That's about the time everything begins to break down.

Good luck with it!

I'll be working....doing DWI saturation, looking for dumbasses to bust.

don't drink anymore, and it's not worth the hassle with the expense, crowds, and all the other drunks out there. so we'll be keeping it at home. probably just cook and get a good night's rest, sleep in... save a couple hundred bucks or whatever.

I've been drunk in Belton before, but I wasn't the drunk person driving. Although, now that I think of it, I did manage to make it from Belton to OP drunk one time. Stupid, stupid me.

Oh, if I get drunk, it will be at home.

may do dinner with some friends, then head home to have some drinks and talk/play Rock Band 2

LOL don't work in Belton so you're good. :D

No plans. New Year's Eve partying got old about 15 years ago for me. It'll just be the gf and me. We'll watch the KU game and then do whatever comes to mind. :evil:

Grrr...this is the only time of year when it sucks being single. All year long, I'm fine. There's just something about being alone on New Years.

don't drink by yourself. that's not good

I'm hoping not to be alone, but I probably will be. Not to worry, you're talking to a person who can make a six pack of beer last a month because I hate drinking alone. It just reminds me that I'm alone. Definitely not a good thing.

what's so bad about being alone? tens of millions of married men wish they were alone every day.

Usually, nothing.

I generally do nothing for New Year's since that's when all the amateur drinkers come out. However, 2008 was one of the worst years in decades for a lot of people. I plan on drinking a bottle of champagne w/2008 on it and slamming it against my house.

Amateur night.... stay close.

Some of my friends are going out in westport all you can drink style but I am either going to be playing rockband or nba k29 on my 360.

westport eh, was beirut all booked up

never heard of beirut might have to try it out.

One thing I thought was silly, not that I drink martini's is that Martini corner is having like 25 dollars all you can drink thinggy on NYE and the martini's aren't free, I am hoodie and jeans type dude so I ususally go to Harpo's or westport flea market, but I am sure for awesomeness sake that P and L will be lit up and rocking.

Taking my grandaughter to the Main Street Cafe to see her uncle play in our favorite band.

Staying home and having a few friends over (5 or 6). We'll play some cards or something and get trashed. I have 2 spare bedrooms, a couch and a futon so no one will be driving home drunk.

You really need some friends down there to go out with and who gives a shit if you're single...

all my single years i had badass times just as the times i have had a gf...:evil: of course i went out with huge groups, and the few times i actually hung out with my family when i didnt feel like out going out and got tons of food. good times

My mom always told me that I could meet some nice woman at church.

I just laughed.

Yeah. My friends are married or have kids. I hang out with my dad way too much. He's awesome, but he's dad. Eh, can't be too bad. I can't even recall what I did last year.

See, that sounds fun.
