Are you doing anything for New Year's Eve (Countdown) tonight?

[NightWatcher]

I doubt that I will make it to the fireworks downtown tonight, and Dick Clark's "Rockin Eve" isnt too terribly "rockin" anymore.

What are you cheeky-monkeys doing tonight?

If you are in Australia or Japan...Happy New Year already!!!

[Heidi]

1. It will be midnight here in five hours and seven minutes!

I'm hoping I can stay awake that long. :yoiks:

[AlCzervik]

2. watching my daughter enjoy her chinese food.

we are going to see Sweeney Todd today though and i also doubt i'll be awake when the new year rings in.

15. Dang it!!

ST is not showing in my area! I couldn't be more pissed!!! You are lucky. I hate to have to wait 6 mths for the dvd! But Happy New Year!!!

[DarkTirade]

3. I'll be... wishing I was doing something fun?

[Droopy]

4. Fun in a can

[DarkTirade]

7. Blech. If I'm gonna be drinking beer tonight, it's gonna be good beer.

[Droopy]

9. It's cheap and strong. That equals good beer in my book.

:)

[DarkTirade]

10. If I want cheap and strong, I'll break open the bottle of mead I've got in my pantry...

only cost me about 10 bucks to brew the entire gallon... :P And it's at least as strong as a belgian ale, probably stronger.

[SteppingRazor]

5. I will be attending a house party.

I'm a big New Year's fan. Probably my favorite holiday (except maybe Halloween). In the last couple years, I went to a Roots concert, a Parliament/Funkadelic concert, and whatnot, but there wasn't really anything that cool happening in my area this year. Just the usual $200-a-head parties at the clubs in Miami Beach. Been there, done that, no thanks.

But, a friend of my wife's decided to have a house party. Her dad's a distributor for Brown-Forman Corporation, so the Korbel champagne and Jack Daniel's whiskey should be flowing like water. :party:

[seemunkee]

6. Dinner and silly games with another couple

We get together every year. I think this will be our 10th year together.
They are cooking the main meal. We're bringing the champagne and dessert.

[BarenakedLady]

8. Going out to dinner

Then I'll watch the ball drop, have some champagne, and go to bed.

[BarenakedLady]

17. Didn't go out to dinner

Place was booked up. Just had a smorgasbord of stuff.

I'm thinking of cracking open the champagne pre midnight, so I can just go to bed.

What a party pooper I am. :P

[flvegan]

11. Monitoring my dogs while half my zip code explodes with fireworks.

[AlCzervik]

12. i totally forgot about fireworks and my bedroom faces the street, oh joy.

i hope it rains.

[AwakeAtLast]

13. Neighbors are having a Wii party

We all have kids, so while the kids are playing, the adults will be imbibing. No driving, which is great!

Happy 2008!!!



:party: :toast: :party:

:woohoo:

[tigereye]

14. what a great idea!

we used to go out to see friends when all the kids were little, but somehow it changed to NY Day brunch, and then to nothing. Odd.


I think I will consider what you guys are doing for next year!

[SPKrazy]

16. no

kinda wish i were but no just home alone

[LeftofU]

18. Warehouse party

Dance til dawn....then look for an after.

[UrbScotty]

19. I'll still turn Dick on and watch his ball drop.

I don't think I will sit through the whole thing, but I'll at least watch him at midnight, raspy though his voice may be from his stroke.

[Left Is Write]

20. I still don't understand the whole Ryan Seacrest as successor to Dick Clark thing.

As for us, we're having friends over to join the frivolity.

[alarimer]

21. Opened a bottle of wine

to go with dinner. I will have at least a couple of glasses. If I pace myself I might finish the bottle by midnight. But if I get a headache (always a possibility for me with beer or wine-kind of takes the fun out- but it doesn't always happen so I take my chances LOL), I will have to stop.

[SCRUBDASHRUB]

22. Just gonna chill out; just got home from a weekend in DC.

[edbermac]

23. Yeah; racking up the OT at work.

Supposed to be out ar 6:30pm. :grr:
