New Year is coming!

I just wanted to remind you that don't forget to buy some champagne for New Year's Eve.

Just looking at a bottle of champagne gives me a headache ever since my big New Year's eve party that I had at my place about 6 years ago. I had a this big party with 200+ guests, mostly my lesbian friends, and a bunch of us decided to do Ecstasy. Well Ecstasy makes you very thirsty and there was nothing to drink but champagne so we drank a lot of it. I must have drank about 4 bottles of it, maybe more.

Actually it was kind of funny as my neighbors called the police about the loud music and some of the police that showed up was more of my lesbian friends, who also happen to be cops, and they came back after they were off duty.

Anyway I was sick as hell for about 3 days afterwoods with the worse headache that I have ever had. Nothing like a bunch of hung over bitching woman in your house on top of a hang over from hell.

I haven't done Ecstasy or drank champane since.

Ahh New Years Eve Amateurs Night I Say LOL I will be home eating chips and dip with the Fam as normal

UGH nothing worse than a champagne hang-over.. like the troops have marched through your mouth and camped out in their desert boots. I stoped drinking it long ago. The only one that never did was the Cristal Rose and i guess at 250 a bottle *when i was able to afford that* i had an aversion to drinking all that money.

actually, before Cristal became Gangsta Rap Water, i'd give Cristal Rose as gifts to my clients. I could buy it in Paris and bring it back, since duty was based on % of alchol content rather than my cost, it was fairly cheap comparatively speaking. And it made a very impressive gift to my oh so needed to be impressed clients.

Even Dom leaves that residual Desert Storm in the mouth feeling.

We do Sparkling Apple-Grape. Looks like, tastes like but leaves a very happy memory.

[Torn Rose]

Watching football all day and then to bed and up to watch football all day.

GO PURDUE!!!!!

Been 5+ years since we went to a party, not many plp around here we feel comfortable with where we can be ourselves, so hopefully we will be in FL where damn near all of our closest friends live so party next year, then football....

Did I mention GO PURDUE yet?

Pork tenderloin wrapped in bacon and 4 side dishes for 25 on my menu
Thinking 4 tenderloins should cover it.

Cleo - LOL - brings back my days in Minneapolis, when the cop shows up who lives in your building, and 2 of the other 6 came back to the party when they got off duty
(btw- no tickets - just a "turn down the stereo" warning)

Champagne gives me a major headache so unless I cook with it, I don't buy it.

Heh heh...New Year's Eve is an amateur night all right. As an old professional drunk I stay home. Something nice to eat and drink and 1 bottle of champagne.

It's wise not to drink too much champagne. After 4 bottles I feel that I'm water sober, but for some reason I can't stand up and walk, heh heh heh...so I drink only half a bottle.

Last year we went insane for New Years Eve, this year I have decided to do just the opposite, it will feature sitting home, drinking some beer, eating some crap, and watching good ol dick clark on the tube late at night. I figured why go nuts if Ill be in vegas 2 days later anyways.
