Thus ends another year ....
And, I got another little game, so why not play:
1-Did you kiss anyone?
No. I did get some chocolate kisses. Some of them had almonds.
2-Did you date anyone?
No. But, I think I ate a date in some dish that was served me. Besides, I like the question “Did you carbon date anything?” … Which, is also no. Nobody seems to carbon date around me all that much.
3-Are you going to kiss someone when the ball drops?
No. I will probably do the old drunken sing-a-long, though. …. When old acquaintances be forgot… blah, blah, blah… something…something Auld Layne Syne! ---
4-Did you lose any friends?
No, thank god to that!
5-Did you gain any friends?
Strengthened relationships.
6-Did you do something new?
I … ummm…. There… shit! I am a creature of habit. So, time for new habits, I reckon. As the South Park quote goes, “I am still nobody, goddammit!”
7-Did anyone important to you die?
This year? No. But, lots of bad news coming from all directions.
8-Did you change?
Everyday! I put on different clean clothes.
9-Are you happy with the year over all?
It wasn’t one I would write home to mom about.
10-What's the best thing that happened to you?
I found my stride.
11-Did you fall in or out of love?
I fell out of love with Guinness. Now, I have a new love – Young’s Double Chocolate Stout. I just had some from the tap the other day… YUMMY!
12-Are you happy the years almost over?
Yes… 2007 was pretty much a downer. And, the bad news keeps pouring in.
13-Are you going to change something about yourself next year?
Yes… I plan to quit smoking as of 1/3/07. Let’s see how that goes.
14-Do you think 2008 will be a better year than 2007?
God, I hope so! I HOPE SO!
15-Did you get drunk in 2007?
Is the Pope Catholic… I reached the ultimate this past August at the Midwest Beer Fest. I … it… well, what happened in Madison will stay in Madison.
16-How many things did you screw up in 2007?
Geesh… let me count the ways.
17-Did you go to an amusement park?
My life is an amusement park, so yes… everyday.
19-Did you go to any parties?
Some. Life is a highway, though. And, I will keep riding it all night long.
20-Did you go on a summer vacation?
Yes, I spent 2 months in the woods of Wisconsin. It was me, a fish, some books, cigarettes and beer.
21-Did you lie to your parents?
That would be if I actually communicated. I am not the world’s best communicator.
22- Who were you on the phone with most?
Matt. He is the only friend that hasn’t learned that I am best communicated with via cyber-space. And, there was Dan. He too hasn’t learned that. That’s okay. I need to keep those phone skills up.
29-Did anyone sing to you?
No… not really. Why would anybody do that?
30-Did you sing to anyone?
Oh dear lord, yes. A few beers in me and I am a regular Frank Sinatra….
31-Did anyone tell you they loved you?
No.
32-Did you ever go to the hospital?
Not this year… Wait? No, that was last year.
33-What did you drink and eat the most?
Beer, water, popcorn, beer, popcorn, ….ummmm…. Hmmm… I need a better diet.
34-Did you change your top friends at least 8 times?
Loyal to the end, baby! LOYAL TO THE END!!! Wait, is this a Myspace question? I… well, no, because I am not a real myspacer. That, and who really gives a shit.
35-Did you change your profile over 10 times?
Profile? Wha? No… Wha? I have the same Polish profile I have always had. Oh, this is another myspace question. Again, who cares. I tweak my blogger profile every once in a great while. What does this reveal about 2007? NOTHING! Dumb question, so let’s move on to yet another dumb question.
36-Did you change your default at least 20 times?
I default to the couch, so no. The couch is one of the best possible places one can be. Sadly, I think I need a new couch. My couch has been rather used.
37-Did you get a tattoo?
No. I wouldn’t. As soon as I would get one, I would be bored with it.
38-Did you vote?
Was there an election this past year?
39-Are you going to make a new year’s resolution?
No, other than to resolve to make no more resolutions.
40-Did you stick to your new year’s resolution from last year?
I made goals. I reached some. I failed at others. I say, it was a 50/50 year.
41. Think you'll date someone in 2008?
I think 2008 will be the same as 2007 in that regard.
42. where will you be when the ball drops?
I hope to be drunk as a skunk in and around Hanover Park! We throw some great NYE gigs. Great beer, good friends, and places to pass out…
43. Do you think you will make new friends in 2008?
That depends on where I decide to go in 2008. But, it is looking like there will be some changes.
44. Are you hoping to meet someone special in 2008?
I don’t concern myself with such things. As the saying goes: “Que Sera Sera (Whatever will be will be)!”
45. How do you feel, another year has passed you by?
I feel like I did at this time last year… I need to go DO something with myself, beyond what I’ve already accomplished. Move forward! I have to keep moving forward.
Again, happy holidays! AND, sorry to bore you! There’s a writer’s strike you know.
