Looking Back on drunken New Years past


Howdy folks and welcome to New Years Eve. Tonight we're headed to my sisters to ring in 2009, I got to thinking about past New Years events in my life. THere were two in particular that came to mind-1992 and 1993 the two years my friends and i got a hotel room and got drunk and stupid.

In 1992 a bunch of us decided to get a hotel room. We really didnt plan ahead the level of drunken stupidity that would occur during that evening. First of all for some reason almost all of us were not fully clothed. None of us got naked or anything like that but some of us were in our underwear. I myself wore a leather jacket and underwear. To this day i have no idea why. One of my friends walked into the room in underwear and shoes to imitate Mr Bentley from the Jeffersons. A couple of other friend-my future brother in law included dragged a Christmas tree into the room they had found by the side of the road. Oh and also we all pretty much trashed the room. Another two friends decided to wrestle and busted a bed. One of the guys broke his thumb trying to fix the bed. Another friend kicked in a bathroom door because someone was drinking her wine in the bathroom with the door locked. Beer was poured everywhere. It was a disaster. No one was hurt although a couple of friends had sex in the bed next to mine while i was trying to sleep.

This brings us to 1993. It was a little more mellow. We got a hotel room but then walked down to the Falls for the annual New Years concert. That year it was Colin James which was massively cool and Alanis Morrisette who at the time was a dance artist and pretty much Canada's answer to Debbie Gibson. Afterwards not a lot happenned except for one friend peeing on the ice that was keeping the beer cold in the tub. Man we were dumb back then. Looking back on it now i can't believe how much alcohol we were able to consume. It was nice doing that with all my friends. These days i wouldnt be able to handle that. One beer and I'm wasted.Ah to be young again
