Well here we are - the death of one year, the birth of another. For fuck's sake I hope '08 is better than '07. Each year has it's up's & down's to be sure, but goddam this was a king-sized rollercoaster mind-fuck of a year. I refuse to make New Year's resolutions, I figure if I don't have enough sense to follow thru & do what needs to be done, what the hell is the use in advertising it. If it's not important enough to me to just do it, then why go thru the whole "I promise to..." whether you say it aloud or to anyone else. Whatthefuckever. Yeah there's stuff I wanna accomplish & will set out to do, but resolutions are almost cheesy. Do it or don't, ya will or ya won't, put up or shut up. Most people end up smoking more, gaining weight, saving less, and not amending their lives in any significant or marked way. 1, 2 weeks of resolve, max. Then back to the SOS (same old shit). Buncha hot air. Meh.
No big plans tonight - w/the veritable plethora of cops sure to be out in Pinellas County me thinks it wiser to jam on a little Chinese cuisine, then lock my doors & set to getting nice & shit-faced on the patio, listen to some funky jam grooves, and ring the new year w/the dogs. Besides, I like my dogs more than a lot of people I meet. People watching is always great fun, and even moreso on an occasion like this when the masses get blindingly drunk & evermore st00pid, but the risk of heading out to observe the madness just isn't worth it. Mix in the fact that I'm feeling a wee bit more anti-social than usual, and way less tolerant of morons & ignorami (plural of ignoramus), and I think I'm making the wise decision. Unless there's an 8-year delayed reaction & all Hell breaks loose like what was anticipated for 1999/2000 I think I'll wake up tomorrow, possibly a little hungover, but ready to go again. Have fun be safe, and avoid the 'noid! Peace out, Happy New Year everyone.
