What did you do on New Years?

[blyons200]

I got hammered with an old friend, we drank and talked until well after 4. The worst part is I got the stomach flu or food poisoning sometime that night. I didn't really feel sick until Friday afternoon except for my hangover. I never felt so awful as to have a New Years hangover with the stomach flu on top. Ugh, I think I lost 10 pounds, didn't eat for 3 days. Puking pure stomach acid and water at 7 am Jan 2 wasn't fun either. I feel much better now, though my throat still burns a bit.

Got schnockered at the bar.

I hope you feel better Blyons!

It was snowing at my house so we stayed in, watched movies..watched the ball drop..drank a bottle of wine we bought at a wine tasting party.. opened some champagne and then drank it in orange juice with breakfast the next morning..

I watched Fox News on my Time Warner hoping it'd go black if the contract expired... no such luck.

I also watched Dick Clark do the countdown, "14, 12, 10, 11, 9..." :2funny:

Other than that, I ate a lot, drank alot, and watched a lot of Twilght Zone :bigthumbup:

Stooges Marathon. Was there anything else on TV? I dunno.

 

[Aaron]

Watched football the entire day

 

[Jon]

Stayed up to watch the ball drop, then went right to bed. Watched the Mythbusters marathon all day New Year's Day. :egypt:

What a bunch of alcoholics on this thread!! ointer:

I did my usual yearly routine of watching the ball drop, then I went to Lewis Black's health club...AKA IHOP.

I also watched Dick Clark do the countdown, "14, 12, 10, 11, 9..." :2funny:

Dude, that's not cool. The man had a stroke, but at least he's doing his best to do the countdown.

Never blame it on the booze

Yeah right, it was the stomach flu or food poisoning.

No seriously, that's an exact quote from what Dick Clark said on the broadcast!

Granted, I applaud the guy for what he did the first year he came back, and even the second year, but now it's just distracting. It's supposed to be this universal and intimate moment with loved ones, and the guy makes it all about himself. And he gets away with it based only on nostalgia. Now, it's just sad.

Again, I'm not trying to be insensitive towards people that have had a stroke, and he's had many great years and has created a lot of memories, but it's time for Dick Clark to retire.

Busiest night of the year.
We drive a taxi.

Personally, I think it's brave what Dick Clark does. He's shown the world that he's not the "world's oldest teenager" he once was. True, he's hard to understand and can't count backwards like he once did, but he wants the world to know that's he's still with us and not be another celebrity withering away into old age.

Yeah right, it was the stomach flu or food poisoning.

Never puked from a hangover in my life, and I've had way worse hangovers than that. I felt the usual hangover until about 6:30 pm, and then all of a sudden I felt 10 times worse. I slept in my car from about 7 to 9 pm because I was so sick I couldn't bring myself to stand up. I sat in there until 12 and finally went in and laid down. I couldn't sleep a wink though. I got up and 7 and bought some antacid but about 5 minutes after I took it, blam, puke city. I think it was the crab legs I had New Years Eve. The alcohol held the food poisoning at bay, but didn't quite kill it off, and when the alcohol left my system it came back with a vengence. That's my theory anyway.

Still had a lot of fun over my 3 week Christmas vacation. Kinda ready to get back to somewhat of a routine.

NOTHING! My wife and I decided we were not having anyone over and we were not going out and we are NOT sitting up drinking until midnight, we were asleep by 10:30pm. The next morning when we made our obligatory New Years calls EVERYONE we spoke to sounded like the walking dead, my wife and I were cool.

We stayed home and watched Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin on CNN. I drank beer. I can't stand Champagne.

LOL! Yes. Earlier on in the broadcast Cooper was warning her that the network is watching her like a hawk and she has to be careful to not say any inappropriate words. Then Griffin says stuff like "Did you see that new show with Courtney COX? And what's that dog called?! A SHITzu?" lol

When the New Year was rang in, I was carefully studying the back of my eyelids.

I went skiing. It was my first time skiing drunk (I've done it stoned and on acid before but never drunk) and it isn't as easy as I thought it would be.
