What are your plans? Gala event? Quiet night at home? Big party? Clubbing? Binge drinking and date raping?
Nothing. In bed by 11pm.
New years was never my bag anyway.
Working all day and then probably nothing because I'll be tired and filthy. Might try to drum up something, but it depends. I like the date raping idea, but wouldn't drink if you paid me.
After college football, I'm going to watch my New Year's Eve staple, When Harry Met Sally, curl up in the fetal position and cry myself to sleep. Like last year. And the year before that. And the year before that.
When the hell did I start watching college football?
Oh, sorry, I thought you were me from the future.

To famous Meg Ryan scene, amiright?
In-laws are coming over. :unsure:
I think I can escape to the basement to watch the New Years Eve Jets vs Leafs game. :cool:
There is a wargaming/gaming/drinking thing going on here, but I already RSVP'd to a boardgaming thing somewhere's else. Decisions, decisions.
:lol: nevermimd should read the whole thread.
Pork roast at mom & dad. Fireworks at midnight along with a nice Cuban cigar. Kissing Of The Relatives to follow, North Korean-style. :lol:
Then off to my sister's for a bit of rampant alcohol consumption, some more cigar smoking and a ride home through the glacial landscape at the end of it all.
Oh, and CdM, if fate ever finds you in Iceland (of all places), a cigar with your name awaits. :hug:
Happy new year.
Quiet night at home. Friends meet outside Vienna, but I don't feel like human company much lately.
I'm also going to roast a pork loin and eat it with a few glasses of Riesling wine. And some cauliflower with Parmesan cheese. Then probably chain smoke and watch some depressing French movies, fall asleep, wake up, and drink Bloody Marys with my engaged-couple friends while they host brunch.
I remember my first Languish New Year's laid up with a sinus infection as a good excuse for not going out. Plus ça change...
Going to some party with an overly-expensive cover charge.
Plus I have a nasty cold.
Lifting weights and converting to Islam.
Trying to survive this damn Bronchitis.
No plans as I'll just be back from Cali. Maybe wine and The Last Seduction.
My friends caught something from their students and are sick, so I'm spending time at home reading.
Tim is waiting for aliens.
The square I live at is traditionally a host to the Warsaw New Year's Eve concert, so also traditionally I'm hosting a party for a group of friends. Champagne, chicken and herbs for the dish I'm making arrived in the morning.
Apparently, an older (gay) friend of mine who is going to attend has recently become a deputy ambassador of a large European nation to Poland so take that Martim Silva. :lol:

Didn't know Slargos had entered a new career field. Attaboy! :)
If I feel up to it I'll go to a friends for dinner, then out to watch fireworks. Then back to the friends to get raucously drunk.
Got some cold medicine and am feeling better.
Off to a party soon!
Hopefully the tickets aren't sold out.
Going to Hamburg, meeting some friends during the day and then go for a party in an acquaintance's place. Should be fun.

Slargos is not older than me, Sweden is not a large country and Slargos is not a friend. So the only connection would be him being gay.
Went out last night to avoid the crowds :P Who wants to pay to drink in the same old pub you usually get in for free and mix with drunken strangers?
I will be staying home drinking half-price cava and eating party food while watching the usual crap TV tonight. I'll also be parking my car out of the path of revellers returning home.
Gotta be at work at 7 AM on the 1st. :( So, quiet evening at home. At least I'll get to watch some college football.
Going to a party in what has been named the best apartment building in the world at the World Architecture Festival. Should be fun to get uncontrollably drunk there.
Drunk calling katmai.
May get drunk, will definitely be in bed when the ball drops.
I drop the ball in bed all the time.

You promised that last year :glare:
Dinner with the family, lucky 12 grapes there and then a party at a friend's house. Lots of buddies, some good drinks and lots of fun to be had. Chocolate and churros for breakfast at the end of the night.
Roast beef, smoked boston butt, and all the traditional stuff.
It seems European Languishites are more likely to party tonight than the Yanks. Strange that.

People in this country get stupid on New Year's. That's why we started hiding the patrol cars under overpasses and train bridges at around 11:20pm.
I have no inclination to go out into the streets that are filled with drunks and tourists come to spend their New Year's in Vienna (WTF, Italians?). At least, the loud firecrackers are banned from sale in 2013, and their use becomes forbidden in 2017. The last two weeks of the year usually sound like the 3rd Ukrainian Front (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vienna_Offensive) is launching its attack again.

Plans cancelled <_<
Maybe doing them tomorrow. Minus the fireworks <_<
I think I'll read some books sitting in the new "comfy chair" I bought earlier today :cool:
A bit like Syt, except that Parisians get as a "bonus" free public transport from today 17:00 to tomorrow 12:00 which means suburban scum on the prowl during the whole night.
So I stay home with familty for some port, champagne (REAL ONE) and cakes.
Fallout New Vegas, beer, chips, etc.... I was invited to a couple of NYE parties but, meh.... not doing anything for me this year. Scalping some Power Gangers on the other hand...
I think I am staying home and lying low this year. I don't go out unless I am going somewhere I can stay the night and I'm not up for that this year.
Going back to work half an hour earlier than I was supposed to. -_-

I don't really get it, but the Eyeties also invade Paris for NYE every year. We should ask Pedrito what's up with that.

Bostonians are getting free subway, bus, and regional rail after 8:00pm, and rush-hour service during the night. :frog:
For Martinus's sake, Americans live to get fucked up in public on New Year's Eve. House parties are fun (though I've been at more than one where an ambulance was called...), but the bars and clubs are full of amateurs looking for trouble. One of my last roommates in Philadelphia blacked out and fell down an entire flight of stairs at a gay club and landed on his mouth. :pinch:
The woman and I are gonna go see Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy then head out for a late dinner at this killer tapas place...then probably a mini-bar crawl 'til midnight?
Bars around here are bad enough on regular Saturdays. I sure as hell wouldn't go to one on New Year's Eve.

Little early for that isn't it?
2 NYEs ago I went to a friends house and got too drunk too early and passed out before midnight. I also may or may not have smoked something from a pipe after getting drunk and may or may not have thrown up all over my friend's bathroom while the ball was dropping.
I got the drunk dial to signal that it is officially New Year's in Türkiye. Şerefe! :cheers:

Sip of brandy, then sip of Coke to wash the taste out. Repeat until the brandy in my cup was gone. I'd never actually mix the two, that would just result in foul-tasting Coke. :lol:
I bought my parents alcohol. They seem to like it. I don't touch the stuff.
Happy New Year, faggots. I may be slightly drunk.
I'm partying with 6 faggots, a single mother and a recently dumped hetero. I'm wearing a bowtie, a checkered purple shirt and purple socks. I'm also drunk. Happy New Gay Year, breeders.

My cousin reserved the 2nd floor of some bar near here that I've never been particularly fond of, but eh...I haven't been there in a while so maybe it's better.

Oh, and good morning and Happy New Year, everyone.
I ended up going to bed 9-ish, because I kept falling asleep on the sofa. Yes, I am definitely a morning person.
Happy New years! I celebrate by doing nothing.

I got nicely lit up. First bar I've been in my life on New Year's Eve without a countdown on the TV. We were all standing around watching TV and I noticed it was five after twelve. :D

Tinker, Tailor was outstanding. Oldman better get a fucking Oscar nom. I recommend it highly.
I had a bunch of fun on New Year's Eve, until I got home (about 2:00 AM New Year's Day), went down to lock the front door, slipped and fell down the stairs on my ass, injuring my shoulder and bruising my tailbone.
