Is anybody else going to fall asleep before Midnight tonight?I probably will. I'm not a huge fan of the fanfare around this holiday for a variety of reasons (some personal ones that I'm not going to go into here), but mostly I haven't slept well for a couple of weeks. I'll probably just play with my new DS Lite a bit (haven't had a chance to play with it much) and then crash well before midnight. I have to work tomorrow, so that's a partial motivator. So we're just having a couple friends over to play some board games, and then I'm probably going to crash. Anybody else going to fall asleep before midnight? Regardless, I hope everybody has a happy and safe holiday, and please, please, please call a cab if you've had more than a couple drinks. I don't care how coherent you think you are and how fine you think you'll be, you won't end up hurting yourself, you'll hurt somebody else (read between the lines there and you'll know why I'm not a huge fan of the holiday). Here are the local numbers for the local taxi companies. Print them up and bring them with you wherever you party tonight (all area code 541 if you're from out of town reading this):

Not literally, of course! Here in Baker City, our local towing company offers free tows & rides home to those that have been drinking and shouldn't drive home. A nice, small town perk. A very powerful poster that everyone should look at before going out drinking: http://www.texasdwi.org/images/jacqui_poster.jpg That one girl said on 12/31/06 @ 06:24 PM: We try to always stay home on drinking/driving holidays. It's a pity, but we'd rather be safe. Happy New Year to you and yours. yoleen said on 01/01/07 @ 01:57 AM: Happy New Year! I fell asleep a little after 9:30pm, and then my neighbor called me at 11:15pm, so I took a bottle of champagne over, and we celebrated with conversation and laughter, champagne and cake. One of my goals for the year is to get the band funded with corporate donors. I'll also get donor information typed up for you to post on www.cascadewinds.org , Jake. Post a comment |
