Our New Year's party was fantastic until...

[SallyMander]

:wow:


That hurts.


But nonetheless...

HAPPY NEW YEAR, DU!!!

[LaurenG]

1. Who did that? And was it a head, a knee or a butt?

Wow but Happy New Year to you guys!

[SallyMander]

2. It was a butt

A couple friends were horsing around. We had another friend renovate our kitchen last year, and he was over last night and said that there weren't enough studs in that part of the wall. So it was just unsupported drywall, and they hit it a bit too hard. I was upset but he assured me it would be really easy to fix!

It looks ugly now, but once it's fixed it'll be a funny story! :D


Happy New Year to you too! Hope you and LovesOhioBlues had a great night! :hug:

[LaurenG]

6. We did, we had a great night and a nice day

I'm a little sad that it's back to the grindstone tomorrow but a 3 day work week isn't too bad.


:hug: Thanks!

[GoddessOfGuinness]

43. That was one seriously bony butt!

Tell your friends they need to strap pillows to their derrieres before they come over from now on!

[SallyMander]

44. LOL - maybe we should just hand 'em out

at the door. :rofl:


I love the quote in your sig line by the way!

[GoddessOfGuinness]

46. Thanks!

Good ol' Al!

[billyskank]

3. Clearly the sex got out of hand.

:)

[SallyMander]

4. You know how it is!

:rofl:


Happy New Year billyskank! :hug:

[billyskank]

5. No, I don't.

Happy new year to you too.

:hi:

[Gonzo Gardener]

7. D'oh... party foul!!!

:rofl:

[SallyMander]

9. Seriously!

Who does that???? :crazy:


How was your night, sweetie? :hug:

[Gonzo Gardener]

25. Smashed Moshers?!!

Definitely not the work of smashed noshers! That's nutz... series!!!!1!!

Honestly, I haven't attended a party with results like that in, well... over a decade. *snort*

We three Green Meanies observed a relaxed and *quiet* passing from the old into the new.
I lost my Texas Hold 'em mojo around 10 o'clock and all of my $10 chips were stacked in front of my twelve year old before the ball dropped in Time's Square... card shark he is! Mr. Green Meanie struggled to stay awake and was sound asleep by 12:30. Little GM and I hit the sheets before 2:00.

We did a little *smashing* ourselves lastnight... smashing of the chocolate nutcracker!






*:hi:* BTW, I've made a first of the year post for a DU Meet Up here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=7304669&mesg_id=7304669

[SallyMander]

26. OMG, that looks like way too much fun!

He looks pretty excited to smash the hell outta that thing. :rofl:


Going to check out your other thread now... but i'm in if i can be! :D

[lost-in-nj]

8. OMG!!!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

My brother and my sisters boyfriend (also my BIL) got into a fight in my house
landed on the kitchen table and it broke and fell just like the tables in the old Westerns..... I was hysterical....


HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!


:hi:

lost

[SallyMander]

11. Wow!!!

Were they really fighting, or just playing?

That's crazy! Did they replace your table? :D


Happy New Year, lost!!! :hug:

[lost-in-nj]

13. Really fighting.....

ended up out in the street

and no they didn't replace it....
but I did get to buy a new set!!!!


lost

[SallyMander]

16. Yikes!

Well i'm glad my party didn't end that way!

But glad you got a new dining room set out of it. :D

:hi:

[SPKrazy]

10. Who's butt did that?

:rofl:

hope they are gonna fix it for ya!

Having done something similar I'll say it is easier than you might think with drywall.

:hi:

[SallyMander]

12. A friend who was over

got pushed into it by another friend -- they both feel terrible!

They offered to fix it, or to pay for it to be fixed. Our friend who renovated the kitchen says it'll be a snap, so i'm not too worried.

How was your night, SPK? Happy New Year! :hug:

[SPKrazy]

14. that's good

my night was

well unimportant in the scheme of things

it got much better later on...

:hi:

[SallyMander]

17. Glad to hear it!

:hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

15. My dear SallyMander!

Ouch, what a way to start the New Year!

Well, at least it'll be easy to fix...

And I hope it gets done very quickly!

That is one spectacular pic!

Happy New Year to you both!

:toast:

[SallyMander]

18. Happy New Year to you too Peg!

I'm hoping we'll get it fixed in the next week or so... and then it'll be a good story! :D

Edit -- did you have a good night last night?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

19. It will be a good story for sure!

I had a very good night, thanks!

Put a CD on, took the tree down, and just generally did some cleaning up...

A good friend called, and we had a lovely conversation...

And of course, I was here!

Minus the few minutes I stole with my husband for a suitable welcome to 2008...;-)

[SallyMander]

21. That sounds like a great night

Glad you rang in the new year appropriately. :D

[VenusRising]

20. Holy Moly!!

That's hilarious since it's nothing too serious, which I'm glad for.

May that be the worst disaster that hits you in 2008! :toast:

:hug:

[SallyMander]

22. I'm glad it was nothing worse

I was upset at the time, but no one was hurt and it's totally fixable, so no problem! :D

:loveya:

:hug:

[no name no slogan]

23. If you look close, you can even see the cheekmarks

classic :thumbsup:

[SallyMander]

24. ...

:spray:


:rofl:

[Oeditpus Rex]

27. Well, why'd you invite Cheney in the first place?

:shrug:

[SallyMander]

29. ...

:spray:


I was hoping the yelling at midnight might finally do him in! :rofl:


Happy New Year Oedi! :hug:

[bridgit]

28. whoopsy!!

oh well...

[SallyMander]

30. Happy New Year bridgit!

Did you have a good night?


Hey, have you heard from Sugar Smack recently? She's been MIA, i was just thinking of her...


:hug:

[bridgit]

31. oh, Hon, we had a couple pitchers early on, like 1 ~ 3pm, then off to the store...

for nibbles & stuff, home by 3:45, DVD's, some kissy groping, and in bed by 10:30...yes, I know, very boring. but '0' hang-over this morning

did hear from SS, some time back someone started a thread about what people would like as their epitaph, SS posted, "She looked busy." still cracks me up to think about it but she is :hi:

:hug: to you too :pals:

[SallyMander]

33. Sounds like a good day to me!

And here's to hoping an equally good year will follow! :toast:

:hug:

[Initech]

32. Damn! That must have been one crazy make out session!

:wow:

[SallyMander]

34. Well, it was 2 guys that probably combine for about 400 lbs

So... yeah.

:rofl:


:hi:

[Initech]

35. Well, then that must have been one crazy drunken fight!

:rofl:

[Deep13]

36. Is the bottom picture from the Italian North End?

I recognize the Citgo sign and the "green monster" as Boston landmarks.

[SallyMander]

37. All three pics are from right around Fenway Park

my parents got me that when i relocated to Ohio, since i'm a huge Sox fan!

I think the bottom pic is the main entrance on Yawkey Way.

Happy New Year Deep13! :hi:

[Gormy Cuss]

38. Horsing around, my eye.

Drunken Yankee fans would be my guess. :P

[SallyMander]

39. Hmmm, i never thought of that!

:think:

Actually one of them is a confirmed Indians fan, but he might be equally pissed after the '07 season! :rofl:


How's 2008 starting out for you? :hug:

[Gormy Cuss]

40. Happy New Year!

2008 is starting out well. Hope that yours improves a bit. :hug:

[SallyMander]

41. Happy New Year to you too!

A little hole in the wall didn't rain on my parade... too much anyway! :D

:toast:

[snooper2]

42. No fireblocks? and studs on 24" centers?

must be new construction :)

[SallyMander]

45. Actually the house is from 1875!

But the kitchen was added on in the early '40s. Then a little entryway was added in the '80s. It's a hodgepodge. And the whole thing is only 880 square feet! :)

The wall where the hole is is in the kitchen... the friend who did our renovations said that there were too few studs there. :shrug:
