I forgot to eat, got abandoned by my friends so they could be cool somewhere I couldn't afford and apparently went to my pub before I went home. I am dreading work today. I knew I hated NYE for a reason.

I was really quite tired and worn out. But I got to let off fireworks!

I had a night in with a joint, my guitar, synth, pc and a frustrating lack of external sound card and the correct audio cables. I got the basis for a tune laid down on paper so it's all good. It appears my new flat overlooks the whole of my town's sky so I had a great view of all the fireworks and dozens of Chinese lanterns from miles around. I'm definitely going up a hill with twenty or so floating lanterns on Feb 3rd, they looked stunning floating across the night sky.

I put my daughter to bed and sat down to watch the redlettermedia episode 3 review. I only knew it was new year when fireworks went off. I drank a lot of home made parma violet vodka whilst watching though. Why on earth do we care so much?

in to a big bottle of vodka then strained through a few sheets of kitchen towel in a sieve to remove the bits that won't dissolve and floated to the top. I tried coffee filters but they don't work as well as the kitchen towel. Comes out a lovely dark clear purple with the consistency of Sambuca and the awesome power of Parma Violets! I shall definitely be making more very soon, this bottle has lasted a couple of days.

Drank a lot of free gin and champers, feel asleep face down on a train table with baloons tied around me at around 8pm. Wake up when we're into Waterloo, get the first food I had all day, vomit. Crack open the cider and watch the fireworks go off by the river from my friend's window. Hangover hits, asleep by 2am.
I'm a bit lame, to be honest.

When it's not exactly easy to explain to them that you have a headache because you spent the whole night diligently poisoning yourself. Perhaps hyperactive sex offenders would have been better - at least you might have been able to sleep through them running around sexually offending people.

It was shortly after obtaining my purchase that I found out, via the medium of the telephone, that our hosts hadn't actually managed to invite many people, and so there would be precisely five people there, myself included. I was a little worried, therefore, that bringing a case of beer might look a little inappropriate. Undeterred, I decided the most sensible thing to do would be to drink as much of the case as possible. To say that this resulted in a bit of a thick head this morning would be somewhat of an understatement. Happy new year all.

Then back to my mate's for a three course meal - Mushroom stroganoff to start, beef in red wine casserole for main with green beans and mashed potato, and then apple crumble and custard for pudding. And then profiteroles later. Had more beer and some good wine (a Barolo).
Made it to about 12:45 before falling asleep in a chair, woke up at 2 and moved to where I was sleeping. Had to blow up my airbed before I could crash which sucked. Woke up, had an Oasis and a cup of tea and felt fine.
