You can’t go back
Ooooh, my aching head.
One would think that, with the sheer quantity of alcohol I ingested last night, I would have slept like death.
One would be mistaken.
I saw a ton of friends last night and it was hella fun. It was my first new year’s eve as a single guy, I think ever in my adult life. Kinda weird. And as the night wore on, it got progressively weirder.
- I got slapped at least once but it was totally worth it (not (exactly) what you think)
- Almost dis-robed a very cool girl I met last night (totally by accident) – she did not look pleased but I hope to see her again anyway
- Got hit on by a friend (that was weird)
- Regretted not hitting on her back (that was weirder)
Alexander the Great used to burn his boats once his army landed somewhere so that they had no choice but either fight and win or die in a foreign land.
In 2006, I made my choices and burned my boats.
2007 then.
Let’s go, let’s go…
