2004 :: Day One

01 January 2004

Why anyone would want to hear about my New Year's is beyond me. Still, there will be at least one person with a vague interest, mostly fueled by the ramblings (of the spicy internal monologue variety) resembling something along the lines of, "Was bare skin showing, and is there photographic evidence?"

S deserves a purple heart for what he endured last night. Frankly, he may have been the one man in the entire universe who had it right and should therefore be the envy of every red-blooded man alive. He showed up around 8 - Em & M still in pajamas. Liquor was promptly served :). Picture his world: in the apartment of 2 hot chicks, serving them liquor, watching them slither from one flesh-baring getup to the next, constantly being asked, "How do my legs look in this one?" or "Should I be wearing a bra with this?"

E and I made it up to him later. There's about a dozen photographs floating around my website (or soon will be after I stea, er, borrow them from S) where he's getting love from 12 random ladies. FACT: if you're a single guy trying to pick up women, having gorgeous female friends increases your stock exponentially.

When the clock struck 12 it was pandemonium-a-plenty. I received phone calls from 2 people very dear to me, toasted with my friends, and took 60 seconds to look around the restaurant and soak in heaping portions of nuzzling couples and adoring friends.

All in all the evening was an astounding success for the simple fact that I was surrounded by people I love (by proximity or by phone). Check out some pics in the galleria.

PS* This entry wouldn't be complete without giving hella-kudos to our server Ryan (see gallery). After we bought the first round at the bar, he comp'd the entire rest of the evening! Not only did he comp our bill, he sat through pictures, served at least 15 other people coming in and out of our booth, and was a general hero for putting up with our antics (not to mention big mouths) all evening.

Comments

Ah, beautiful women spurred by indecision. Honestly, we are the most decisive ladies I know Miss M, so when the man gets the treat seeing us out of our element he should be shocked and privileged. You're right though, I was shocked and privileged by Ryan's amazing service. I guess we could have tipped him more, huh? Gotta love the new year.
