They're not my cats, but they're MY cats, you know? Tim, my friends nearly all LOVE pot. Love it waaaay more than drinking. I myself am a beer drinker and just don't care for it, but I can see the need to sort of tune out for a while. Remind me never to get you drunk. :) Cranrasbry: I feel the same about the neighborhood cats. They’re not my cats, but they’re MY cats, you know?

Granted, that's just for me, but still. And as far as the expense goes, I can spend twenty bucks for something that could last me a month, or I could blow the same twenty bucks at a bar over the course of two or three drinks. Add to it that I get really mean when I'm drunk, and quite docile when I'm stoned, it's a no-brainer for me. To each their own, I suppose. I’m surprised no one spoke up in defense of pot.

For some insano reason it plays on tv every New Year's Eve here. It is kind of cool for mockage fodder, and you can dance to it, so I guess yeah. The only bummer was that at midnight some repugnant ferals decided to shoot off fireworks at my lake, and they scared my ducks badly. (I feel like they are my personal ducks, but they are actually free range.) Watched Can’t Stop The Music, again(!) For some insano reason it plays on tv every New Year’s Eve here.

Dear Lord. :D I like the blue ones. :) Nightowl, we do have perfect asses in there somewhere just screaming to breathe free, and I swear I am going to dress like a hoochie mama when I find mine. Susie, You Are So Right. I felt totally vindicated. Embarrassed, bt vindicated. Tara, Jello shots??? Dear Lord. :D I like the blue ones. :)

The car never makes that knocking or banging sound when the mechanic is standing there. It makes you feel like the village idiot because you know it's doing something funky and the mechanic is looking at you like you've lost your ever lovin mind. It must make you feel somewhat validated to have had a siezure right there in front of the doctor. "See? I told ya so!"

Very pathetic, but my husband was sick and is now on antibiotics. I have a new years resolution the same as yours, in search for my perfect ass. I know its in here somewhere and I am determined to find it. Good Luck! I was asleep by 10. Very pathetic, but my husband was sick and is now on antibiotics.

My daughter partook with us at the stroke of midnight with her very own bottle of sparkling cider popped and poured into a martini glass. It was all very adult and fabulous for her. But the NEXT night, we went to our neighbors house and got drunk and stupid on Jello shots and Keg beer, so it all evens out:) New Years is amateur night, so we stayed in, had a few cocktails and smoked cigars on the porch.

The short-term, not-eating thing? If you have diabetes or another condition that requires regular meals, I think it's a horrible idea but otherwise, I think taking a break from your eating habits can help you shift your focus and re-evaluate where you are. Congrats on the weight loss. In the New Year, I'm focusing on better maintaining my vegetarian diet, cutting down on my sodium intake and working more exercise into my day. I'm doing it in baby steps - no grandiose, pie-in-the-sky resolutions for me. Just one little step at a time. Sorry to hear about the seizure. I hope you're feeling better.

I started a 'healthy' diet, too. Last night, my wife and kids had steak and potatoes and I had a 'tofu salad.' I have lost four pounds in six days. Please shoot me! “I am determined to eat healthy this year.”
