I have a few beers (that I hate) left over from a friend visiting and half a bottle of vodka. I could get drunk while alone at home.

But that is probably a bad idea as I don't need my blood thinner than it already is after the amount that I lost on Thursday night.

I met up with a bunch of friends, picked up another friend from work and watched the fireworks. There was talk of going to the beach or making moustache-shaped biscuits, but we were all pretty tired by that point.

Really want to reach into the screen and punch that 2K Games rep that claimed that strategy games are non-contemporary (which is why they are making Call of X-Com: UFO Warfare). Really had enough of these disingenuous assertions.

Never mind, I'm gonna go out for dinner and see Tintin with my mom

I may try to stream summat in the next couple days, though.

I guess now the new X-COM game is going to have some base building and squad management parts. They noticed all the flak and had the developers run through the original game a few times.

I have bag of chips, several cans of soda and steam full of new games. Then ofcourse the normal tin melting and making predictions of it.

So I got invited to a new years party. But its 2 hours away. I don't really have a place to crash afterward. And I don't really know if I am up to drinking and partying.

Still got another 6 hours until New Years here, and most of my friends don't want to do anything, or have other plans. I'm trying to decide whether I should go to a party with some friends-of-my-friends, or find something else to do. I only really know two people there, and the rest are strangers or acquaintances I've only met a handful of times... though all are generally cool, rather enlightened university people.

In truth, I really enjoy talking with and hanging out with them, but I can't help but feel a bit intimidated; most of them are my age, and graduates of one of the best schools in my area. They're all off doing neat things abroad or working professionally, and when the time comes to discuss what I'm doing with my life, between my minimum-wage jobs and the creeping pace of my education, I feel pretty crappy.

There's also a slight bit of awkwardness, as the friend hosting is one whom I should've known better than to ask out once upon a time. I'm really happy to hear that she recently got married, and she picked a guy who seems great for her, though the whole thing has served to refresh that old bit of embarrassment as well.

One way or the other, Happy New Year B12!

Sorry, but we appear to have multiple New Years threads.

Anyway, lacking means to find out where the above-mentioned shindig is at, and no other available friends, I anticipate I'll be home alone for the evening.

As such, if folks would like, I'm totally down with ringing in the new year with a 2012 Livestream Aztextravaganza! Provided I can get these subs to work, we can watch "Mysterious Cities of Gold", a 1980s classic French/Japanese anime set in the Spanish colonies of Mesoamerica during the Colonial Era. It actually sounds pretty cool! If all else fails, there's also Part 2 of "The Hogfather", and some other fun things we could do. If you're home tonight, feel free to hop on in!

Invited to a party that started ten minutes ago, but nobody ever gets to these things on time unless they like milling around and talking to the two other guys who got there early. So I'm leaving now, and plan on getting there just as the party actually gets going.
