I guess all my bitching about how everyone was coming over just to eat of our foods and then ditching us paid off.  We weren’t alone when the New Year was rung in (rang in?  came ringing in? ah - skip it!) My friend Sarah whom before NYE night I really didn’t know outside of church small group stayed and played Wii with us and completely kicked our butt in pretty much every game.  I claim it was because of the couple glasses of wine, she claims it’s just because she rocks.  Maybe a touch of both?  Anyway, we laughed and had a great time.  Then she was so awesome to agree to go get our other friends at a different (obviously not “better”) party since she was completely sober.

Then the party began.  Jerm and I rocked out in the living room.  Turns out my air guitar session was a solo with a back up dancer/singer/moon-walking extraordinaire!  Jim and Courtney were in heaven having finally found a species like themselves and were sure to tie that into Star Trek.

I think we wrapped everything up at around 6:30am?  I know the sun was about to rise over the lake.  Anyway, it was a great time and one that I’m sure will be remembered by all.  You know, with the superlative talking, figuring out the woes of the world, and solving all the world’s problems and all.  You’d be amazed how clear things are at 5 in the morning.

Some things we figured out in our deep discussion were men and women can be friends without something going on.  Marriage is a sacred institution that can be awesome but people mess it up sometimes. Jim makes the most awesome ribs ever.  Team maggot now has a mascot and the mock up is hanging on my refrigerator.  Nikka Costa has the hottest bootay going.  Kids make everything better and harder to do.  And The Who is a rock band imitated by many, equal to none.
