Today I was feeling sick. Sick. Sick. Sick. Some friends and I went out to the bar last night for the annual Boxing Day bar festivities to see who all came home for Christmas this year.

The place was packed. Ill have to admit, I had myself a good time, maybe a little too good as evidenced by todays barfyness. I made the mistake of going to bed drunk, which is never a good idea. I kind of just lay there, unable to close my eyes because if I did the room would start spinning and Id feel even sicker. I wasnt going to throw up I told myself. But after a while it started. You know the feeling, your mouth starts to water and you taste that salty taste and then before you can stop it BWWWARRFFF!

Fortunately I actually felt better after that and was able to fall asleep after.

What is it that makes a drunk rush up to get more booze as soon as the bartender jumps up on top of the bar and announces LAST CALL! ? I really dont know, but I do know that it was those last two that did me in.

As a result today was a total write-off. A whole day to myself and I accomplished nothing. Well I did discover something my DVD player still works. Kind of. I just have to give it a slight tap to get it to play the disc while its spinning it around trying to read it. Just like Fonzie did to the jukebox on Happy Days.



NEW YEARS REVOLUTION

1. Put my collecting habits on hiatus for ONE YEAR.
Can I do it? Only time will tell. What with the new Star Wars movie this spring and all the merchandising that brings itll be tough, but the way I figure it, through the magic of e-bay all that stuff that I love so much will still be available for years to come, probably at prices a lot less than retail too.

2. Buy the one thing Ive always wanted. A super powerful telescope. Christmas was expensive enough without me buying myself this, Ill get it for myself for my birthday.

3. Start exercising regularly. Time to hit the weights & buff up these skinny arms. I want to be able to bend iron bars by the end of the year. Then I can join the circus.

3. Get new glasses.

4. New hairstyle to go with the glasses or vice versa.

5. Get a cell phone. One that plays really annoying songs.

6. Buy a guitar and learn to play the thing. I need to expand my horizons and learn new things. Whats cooler than a guitar?

7. Finish my mini-comics and print them. And then make some more.

8. Get a dog. Its so damn boring living by oneself. Friends are fine but even they have to go home sometime. A dog would be a much needed constant companion. As soon as the snow melts, fidos coming home.

9. Get a tattoo. Just one, something Ive designed myself. Something totally unique.

10. Save money, Formulate Escape Plan, try new things, have more fun.

I think Im gonna leave this up for quite a while, just to see how Im doing and to remind myself about it.
