New Years Ideas

by

2

Does anyone have any ideas for something to do for New Years Eve? The only requirements I have are as follows:

  1. entertaining (live music prefered)
  2. cheap
  3. alcohol must be served

That’s really about it. I have the following in mind so far, but nothing is really striking me as particularly interesting:

  • Rebirth Brass Band @ Maple Leaf
  • Mike West @ Margaritaville
  • “New Year’s Extravaganza” @ Mermaid

Damnit, I just saw that the Klezmer AllStars played at Mermaid tonight. Crap.

Yes indeed

INT. WALGREENS DRUG STORE 10:21PM

WOMAN BEHIND COUNTER
Hey baby, welcome to walgreens. Merry Christmas.

VINCENT
Hey, I’m so glad y’all are open, I wasn’t feeling well and I slept for most of the day. I woke up and realised I was out of cat food and bread. I figured I’d make a run to the grocery and pick some things up before tomorrow, but everyone is closed.

WOMAN BEHIND COUNTER
Yeah baby, we’re normally open till 11 on Christmas eve but we’re open till midnight this year. I told our manager it’s dangerous, but he dont care.

VINCENT
Dangerous? Were y’all held up or something?

WOMAN BEHIND COUNTER

No. It’s dangerous to put your cash before the cross like this, but we all get what’s coming to us. If you put your cash before the cross you’re just playing with fire. Playing with fire!

VINCENT

WOMAN BEHIND COUNTER

VINCENT
… and brimstone I guess, eh?

WOMAN BEHIND COUNTER
Yes indeed!

I shouldn’t encourage the religious, I know.. but it’s just so much fun.

As is tradition in my family, I got to open one of my presents from Dan today and WOW. He got me a digital picture frame. You plug it in, hook it to the phone line and it downloads pictures that you upload to their website. It’s just about the coolest thing ever. Thank you!

Speaking of which, I’m going to be uploading some more shots here soon. More from the white elephant party, some from work and a few others random shots.
