You'll wonder what it is about me:
If the past four days are any indication, 2004 is going to be totally fucking awesome.
It all started out on New Year's Eve, which is usually a total suckfest as far as I'm concerned, because I hate forced celebration and the type of parties where people count down and practically pee themselves with glee just because the clock went "sup it's midnight". This time, however, I just went over to my neighbor's place, where a handful of my friends were hanging out, which was wonderful and laid back and just what I needed.
I spent New Year's Day just relaxing and chilling out, because I knew I had some major party preparation to attend to in the next couple of days and I wanted to make sure I was well rested. I'm glad I did that because the next two days were a fucking whirlwind of seemingly neverending tasks. Throwing a kickass party is hard work, you know.
Friday was spent running all over the goddamn place spending metric asstons of cash on various and sundry items for the party. I was glad I decided to have the party in the first place, because it gave me a convenient excuse to do a little redecorating. I went to Lowe's, Ikea, Krispy Kreme, Target, Urban Outfitters, Z Gallerie, Prix, Bristol Farms, Trader Joe's, and Smart & Final. After lugging all of the crap I bought at said locations upstairs, I had to unload all of it, assemble whatever needed assembly, and shoot myself several times as revenge for trying to plan something like this in the first place.
Saturday saw me working my ass off, cleaning, making food, and ripping MP3s. I decided that I should be all high-tech like the geek goddess that I am and create a huge MP3 playlist on my laptop and then hook it up to my stereo, thus eliminating any requirement for me to play DJ throughout the evening. It worked out well, but really, how can you go wrong with a mix that contains Guns 'n' Roses, Public Enemy, and David Bowie? That's just pure audio gold, my friends.
The party was a smashing success. Some highlights: Kari and Steve brought me awesome presents, saw my boobs, and cleaned up after I tragically broke my best martini glass; Jim came all the way from Orange County, was a big hit with my friends, and if you can believe it, is even hotter in person; Sean successfully broke his resolution to be nicer to people; Jessica made me the most awesome present ever and, in addition to being Ms. Bling herself, is a master of all things tealight; two of my neighbors compared penis size in my kitchen; and I realized that not only are all of my friends really kickass and smart and amazing, they are also all really good-looking.
I'm probably forgetting some things, because I was ridiculously drunk due to the combination of a lack of dinner and two large martinis, but I will say this: 2004 is gonna be mo' betta awesome.
