To me and my Greenwich fellas, it's 2004 here, and it feels good. After a whisky-drink, a lager-drink, and a champagne-drink, and a toilet-drink (a little play on that Chumbawamba-song, thanks for playing along!) it's time to hit the sack.
To you americ�nos, and to you nipponesios, and I guess those Down Under and also those brown, fuzzy, flightless birds, you're still in for a treat.
Salutations from Sweden, here's to another year on this slimy mudball. Sk�l!

Well, I was supposed to go to a party tonight, but both Christina and Mike had to work closing shifts tonight ... silly people!
So, anyway, tonight I stay home. Which is fine with me, because I have to work tomorrow morning and last Saturday I got drunk enough to last all year - it was a Christmas party thrown by my boss, and apparently I was staggering up to everyone proclaiming "I love you maaaaan" and hugging them. Apparently, I also drank an entire bottle of root beer schnaps straight, and according to at least one guy, I took a drag on a mary-jane cigarette (not sure I believe that last one). And I wondered why I'd slept through the entirety of Sunday.
Anyway, 2003 was my final year of college. I have finally finished. And now that I have, I've chosen to pursue a career which doesn't require a college degree (what wonderful timing I have). I've decided I want to own my own pizza shop, ideally a Papa John's franchise. So, since I don't meet the financial requirements at the moment, I'm going to get it the traditional way - bank robbery. Kidding. Anyway, I'm starting the management program, as a "Shift Leader" with PJs in a few months. It'll be a cut in pay for a while, but hopefully soon I'll be promoted to assistant manager and assigned to a store which makes a good bonus. Assistant managers get 1/4 of the store manager's bonus, anywhere from $300 to $2000 a period (thirteen periods a year). With luck, and a few years of hard work, I'll say "fuck it" and get a real 9-5 job. Or maybe I'll be able to own my own franchise. I guess we'll see.
I'm going to stop rambling, drink a nice cold Bass Ale, and hit the sack. G'night, and, remember ...

Why wouldn't they? They're still on the "left" side of the International Date Line. Which means they were among the first in the world to celebrate.

Speaking of which, after getting knocked down and most definitely not getting up again yesterday, I have learned to Never. Underestimate. Champagne. ever again. Really, it felt like a firecracker exploded in my brain... ow.

If you live a life of cliches. I just tend to wander around, giggling and proclaiming that I am the best Mario Kart-er in the world ever.
Champagne is quite lethal though. Probably because of the nice taste.
