Then you'll just have to put on your party pants and go have fun.

FYI, they currently have the entire first 5 seasons of SNL on Netflix instant view. You get to see the old Buck Henry pervert babysitter skits, Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia in a 50 beach blanket movie. Etc. etc.

Get the Roku Player. You'll love it.

It's just another day for me.

Get together with friends from high school, drink alot, eat a lot, kidnap a foreign dignitary. You know, what most people do on New Year's Eve.

We're going to friends within walking distance

Shawnee123 · 12-30-2009, 08:16 PM

One of my gfriends is begging me to come to their house. Her husband's bday is the first. I love both of them to death, so I might actually have to ditch my at-home plans. Plus, I always have fun over there, I can spend the night safely...but I really wanted to stay home. That's how old I am! I don't want to disappoint them, though.

Shawnee123 · 12-30-2009, 08:46 PM

OMG...thank you.

Eh, I'm in a damn computer chair most of the time anyway. It's my natural habitat. Left leg tucked under. I'm a zoo exhibit.

So, does it cost against one of your movies? I can do that. I get 3 at a time, so I can always leave one for online viewing.

DON'T DO THAT! Trust me, I did it for a long time, and I'm paying dearly for it now. My knee is permanently screwed.

It's the knee I had the meniscus cartilage removed from when I was a freshman in college (HS basketball injury.) It adapts, that scar tissue that supports your knee.

Well, I hope so, anyway. :p

Nope.
Lots of documentaries are instant too. I watched Food inc last night.

Shawnee123 · 12-30-2009, 08:53 PM

Going to look at that stuff. Thanks guys!

I was invited to play cards with my ex-coworkers.

The last year was really good.

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And days o' auld lang syne.

...but I am not going. I am going to celebrate with some sparkling cider and my kid and watch a movie.

I had to laugh at this. As I read it, I was sitting in my computer chair with my left leg tucked under.
