Good Wednesday Morning, Everybody!
:donut::hi:
Boy, these days are fairly flying by aren't they? 4 days till 2006! :bounce: Do you have plans to go out for New Years Eve or are you going to stay in and bring in 2006 at home? We'll probably stay at home and watch the ball drop in New York on TV, but then I'll have to go to bed right after that because I have to be to work at 10 on Sunday morning. x( As the saying goes...no rest for the wicked. Or at the very least, no rest for retail managers.

going good, going good. Holidays were great and NYE is right around the corner :)

We're hosting a BBQ and pool party (indoor heated pool :D) in the early evening then going to a club to watch the countdown and get our kisses then to an afterhours party at a friends. Nothing like 40 gay boys and their girlie friends partying till dawn to ring in the new year, eh?

:)

6. LOL! Boy, you got THAT right!
:rofl:
I've done that before too. The best fun for ME was watching (and in the end making fun of) those guys who were too drunk and were trying to dance! I've seen many guys bust their ass up on the dance floor. :rofl:

8. Haha...
:rofl:

God bless digital cameras for those "priceless" moments! :D

Last year I ended up dancing with (still don't know how) with this crazy, drunk, jamaican who couldn't keep his hands out of my pants. Drama. My friends relish in those memories of my torture to this day. :rofl:

14. ROFL!
Now THAT is a sight I would have LOVED to see! I can just see it now...here's Scooter dancing with this guy and the guy keeps shoving his hand down your pants. You pull his arm out. Several times. Then, finally just give up and let it stay there until the end of the song, which ends up being almost 9 minutes long. :rofl::rofl:

Psh..

After 2 minutes, it's "Excuse me, I have to go to the bathroom." Then you run to the farthest bar for a well earned drink :D

4. Hope to be on DU that night.
Btw, Good morning to you too. As usual I am up to my ears in ideas and learning about computers online this morning. Or at least I am trying to learn. The tutorials for C# start over my head in some cases.

7. Morning, Jama!
:hi:
I was thinking about being here on DU also. I don't know, though...Greekspeak will want me to be with him instead of sitting on the computer.

Isn't C# and C++ and the like programming languages? I'm pretty computer savvy, but I'll leave the actual programming to the experts.

49. Yeah, it's a programming language.
I actually took a class but we didn't go as far as I wanted to go. I am trying to create a journal/scheduler application now. I may never finish it though at this rate. I keep searching for journal/diary type programs already made on the net, but never do seem to find a simple easy to use program. I figured it wouldn't hurt to try to build one myself. I have a long way to go before I make it like I really want it though.

5. I'll be working
As you said, no rest for the wicked. And considering I worked every holiday I've obviously been very wicked. No matter, I'll just hang here on DU and ring in the New Year with any people who might be around.

12. There's always next year I suppose
Depending on what I'm doing for work I just might have the night off, and maybe even the next day. Who knows? I might have some semblance of a regular life. (Dare I imagine the possibility? )

As to this year, I look forward to seeing you here. :bounce:

I'm sure I'll always have to work them. I hope next year, YOU can be off and have a normal life, even if I can't. I look forward to seeing you here too! :hug:

13. Ah, retail at Christmas time!
I remember it well! I had a pretty good Christmas, though it involved a lot of traveling in a very short period of time, so by Sunday night when we got home, I was pretty tired.

I am just so happy to see you!!!! :bounce: :loveya: :hug:

20. Good morning Clintmax
I have not decided what to do for New Year's Eve. Go out with my girlfriends. Go see my Mom. Or go way up high into the mountains where my dearest friend lives. What do you think?

22. Hello, WildH!
:hi:
When was the last time you saw your Mom? If it has been a while, I'd go see her. If you see her often, I'd just call her, but be with my girlfriends. Then again, being up in the mountains sounds fun too. Unless there's lots of snow and you got snowed in and couldn't leave the next morning.

23. Good Morning!
You are right the days seem to be flying by. I hope that you've enjoyed your time with greekspeak, that is what it's all about in the end. Relationships right? So I would like to take this moment to wish everyone a happy and progessive 2006. May all of our relationships grow and fulfill our needs and in turn those of every member of the planet. Thanks for the relationship, if only through the "internets" everyone!

I wish you all happy lives.

43. I rarely go out on holiday evenings.
There are still far too many people who drink and drive.

I'll be home safe and sound, dreaming about Spring.

Many years ago when Teddy and I were together - there were two seasons:
The boat's in the water
The boat's out of the water.
Now my two seasons are:
It's warm enough to ride (even if I do need leathers)
There is ice on the road (I'm not taking my trike out)

I'm so happy for you that your entire family will be together. Sometimes home is the best place to be.

36. Mornin' all, mornin' Clint
Hmmm, New Year's eve plans are still up in the air. Typically a bunch of us get together and play board games. Truly it is fun! No one seems to be offering up their place yet though. We'll see.
I'm off to work soon after having five days off, and I'm tired. Shouldn't be, but I am.
Wishing all a wonderful Wednesday.

We're old fogies, after all. Maybe a few movies. We'll see.

But for now, I have to go and help harleydad with some fixing-up projects. BTW, the screen guy didn't show yesterday. Typical. Trying not to stress about it.

I hope you have a wonderful day. Hope to see you tomorrow morning! :hug: :hi:

We got home from my parents' Christmas Day to find we had lost our telephone service and so have been without the internets! :evilfrown: I'm at work now and should have service back when I get home today. That explains my absence. I have missed you and your crew. :hug:

I'm glad you had a nice Christmas and I hope you get calmly through to Saturday!

55. My stomach is just recovering from Sunday's food.
Only to have another onslaught this evening with my uncle and cousins.

I normally only eat breakfast and lunch, so this is all rather odd for my system - but's it's damn well worth it.

How was yours? I hope that you had a wonderful time with everything. :D

56. I definitely understand. My new DU name should be gravyboy.
I am trying to recover before a round of (family-free) parties this weekend. It was very nice being with my extended family. I successfully avoided all familial landmines. I'm sorry to say that being relentlessly cheerful and kind over several days took its toll and I spent the 26th recovering. I am my balanced self again! ;-)
