    I made a tasty blueberry lavender cake, leek gratin with homemade bread and watched the stranger things finale. Ideally I’d go to sleep now but goddamn fireworks are scaring my dog.

    The last time I went to a bar on New Year Eve, I paid 20 bucks to get in, bought my first drink and started goofy dancing to a song that came on the radio. Then I got thrown out for being intoxicated.

    I’m drinking a mango margarita and eating spaghetti. This was not a wise combination choice, yet here I am.

    I accidentally taught my 4 year old flip cup.

    They had a “noon-years eve” party which celebrated the new year at noon… then the adults went a step further

    There comes a certain age where if someone invites you to a New Year’s Eve party you’re just furious with them.

        I’m working this year, but the wife lucked out hard. She got invited to a house party, then today her friend called and said everyone except the two people hosting are sick, so it’d just be the three of em.

    Hey introverts, if it’s just some friends getting together, go hang out with them. You’re not “an introvert” you’re introverted, you’re out of shape. Flex those muscles a little and force yourself to rebuild community.

    Community is what will save our future more than any amount of posting or tweeting or advocacy about whatever this week’s social issue is. Stop wearing your labels and excuses like a shield to keep yourself from doing the hard things.

    No, shut up. I don’t want to hear it. Do or do not, there is no try.

      Some people enjoy pay all of their money to play cards, too.

      And others pay money to gain cancer.

      Like imagine getting cancer treatment in a hospital and looking out the window and seeing someone smoking. Two people doing the exact opposite things.

        Some people pay money to enjoy their lives, and savour every moment, even if it means cutting the crap a little short.

        I don’t smoke, as the risk/reward isn’t worth it to me personally, but if it’s what it takes for others to be happy, all the power to em. Knock themselves out. Literally heh.

        I’d rather live 50-60yrs to their fullest, than live 80-90 mediocre years inside watching the latest Netflix crap or tv repeats (not to say there aren’t times when I enjoy it).

    Hang out with a dozen people from the neighborhood at someone’s house. Short travel, cheap drinks, nice food, neighbors will help me home, if I’m too wasted.
