ok
i'm a big liar...

I drank too much, and I'm still a bit drunk this morning. ugh. i woke up this morning with a lei (sp?) around my neck and a tummy ache. and i went upstairs, and i realized i wasn't wearing pants, then i put some on, and ate a cinnamon roll, then i realized my pants were inside out and i forgot to button them. (if i'd buttoned them i'd've realized they were inside out sooner!

anyway, I'm also pretty sure that my little brother's friend was groping me on the couch last night when i was sleeping, then I'm pretty sure he attempted to kiss me... not sure how successful he was since my mouth was numb cause i realized last night, that when you go brrrrrrr with your lips and the vibrate you know? like, it makes your teeth chatter... when you're drunk anyway. and so i did that a lot last night. yep. Oh, and my brother's other friend gave me some quarters last night, and i found those stuck to my body this morning cause i slept with them. that was fun. i didn't even notice till i went to the bathroom and they started dropping off.

anyway... Happy New Years everyone, and if you didn't know, last night i said "Happy New Year PF! I love everyone, you're all special (something... i don't even know what that word was supposed to be...). I loves you!" heh

Gale, you're a riot! :-p

We missed you last night, a group of PF people decided to keep me company here and Moonbear filmed the whole thing. Here's the video, of course you may have to read the "Who's spending the night with Evo?" thread to understand why there's a party in Ivan's closet. :blushing: tribdog is self explanatory. :biggrin:

Pants were optional, but highly discouraged.

So far in the new year the most exciting thing to happen was my transmission going out.
Maybe I'll wind up with a new car eventually and be better off anyway.

Sorry to hear that. You going to try to have it fixed first?

Well I can't afford a new car at the moment so I'm definitely going to see about getting the old one fixed. I don't know if it can be though. I just had it serviced last week and suddenly it was low on fluid today after it broke down. I filled it back up and the tranny was spotty. It would only work just after I started it up then it would cut out. It's making a rattling noise off and on too. I'm pretty sure it's dead and it would take a couple thousand just to replace the tranny so I might as well buy a new car. A new used car that is. It wasn't a very good car anyway.

So on the bright side if it is dead then I won't have to deal with having a crappy car anymore.:smile: I'll just have to take the bus for a while until I can afford an new one.

Damn it. I missed New Years completely. Was on a flight from LA to Sydney and crossed the date line at about 4am on the 31st. And I was asleep as well. Oh well, will have to celebrate twice as hard next year.
