Idiocy Reigned Supreme in 2004

New Year's 2004; The plan was good.....the execution miserable.

I walked down to work to download some files I "needed" onto the PDA I've inherited from a friend. I've not yet set what I deem a regular bar for myself in this place, so the plan was to walk back to the apartment hitting a couple I've been to on the way; take a break; stop at the places in my building; go to Duke's and maybe watch some fireworks on the beach or maybe go to Da Dawghouse see what's going on.

Here's how the plan unfurled:

I walked to work and got the files. I stopped at Brew Moon. I stopped at the Mai Tai Bar. I watched the ball drop (in New York). I had fun calling people to wish them "Happy 7 PM." I went to the apartment. I changed (clothes that is). I stopped at Shanghai Bistro cause I told the bartender and one of the servers I would. I talked to a couple from Pennsylvania. I had one Martini. I ended up with a 2005 plastic hat, anoyse-maker, and beads. Bartender asked if I wanted another; one in the couple said sure he would why not.....I repeated that in first person.

I made it to 10PM HST. Only an idiot plans to go to a party and doesn't make it there right?

I did find out that the fireworks were awesome, the beach was crammed, it was block party worthy and that Da Dawghouse was bumping.

(Excuse the crude expression ladies/gentlemen, but) I blew my load to soon......well, except for the rhyme, appears I'm a year late for that.....
