I had a dream last night that me and this girl were bowling in the break room of my office except instead of bowling for pins on the floor, we were aiming for half-gallons of milk inside the fridge and instead of rolling the balls, we had to bounce them to make it into the fridge. It was spectacularly fun and messy. I think it would actually make a really fun sport. Somehow I doubt that bowling balls bounce as well as they did in my dream. Either way. My brother got called out last night to a rollover in Middletown. I guess this 18-wheeler rolled over and dumped 1,400 tires. That must've been a really fun clean-up. I find it hard to believe that 1,400 tires can actually fit into a truck, but that's the story. Goddam, this blog sucks. I suppose it's because I haven't done anything for like the past 3 days besides sit around and watch the History Channel. New Years eve kicked my ass, although I did manage to win $40 playing poker which totally covered my bartab from the night. My buddy was bartending so I got off light anyways. Oh yeah, I also learned how to pick a Masterlock combination lock. I'm sure that is a skill that will come in handy if I'm ever in the most minimal security prison on the planet.
Yeah, it was a Finn's New Years this year. It was probably the best NYE in recent memory. My buddy Silberman was bartending and they opened up the pool tables for free pool. I got there at like 8:30 and started right off with a L.I. iced tea, a few 'complimentary' shots and then a bunch of beer. Pretty much the whole Newington crowd was there. It was pretty rockin'. We didn't even notice when the ball dropped. Then 7 of us went back to my place and played poker into the wee hours.
My dad came up on Friday and left on NYE...well, sorta left. He went to Mayor Mike's downtown for NYE and got a hotel room somewhere around there. Left for Balt'more in the morning.
What did you guys do for New Years?
I think one of my drinks at New Years here in the city cost 40 dollars.
Joe we don't need to hear about your balls. BADUM chh.
