My not so aching head.
Okay, This morning I have a Three Star hangover according to this scale my wife has listed. Which is a lot better then I thought I was going to be. I started working on the Keg yesterday at 11:30 AM, and finished late into the evening. We had a Virtual who’s who of Northern Illinois Bloggers in the house last night. Well it’s a who’s who list to me!
Graumagus of Frizzen Sparks decided that there was a surplus of alcohol in my house and as a definition of a Graumagus states, he must come to alleviate the situation. He also took it upon himself to try to make my guests sick by busting out the ol’ 27 and forcing it upon others. I allowed this to happen since his beloved Bears took a smack down from the Packers.
Harvey of Bad Example graced me with his presence. Harvey was very grateful for being reunited with his hetero life-mate and partner in spawning half of the bloggers in the blogosphere. I did discover that no matter how much you tell him not to do something, he’d still do it. I.e., Don’t watch this video, don’t drink what’s in the bottle, and don’t let LittleJoe get his hands on your wife.
TNT of Smiling Dynamite took some time away from all of her blogging to visit. Apparently she has a selective memory. She swears that I never invited her to join my Sal-Cap football league. I know I did, I checked the invite list and her e-mail is on it. I’m thinking that since I’m close to perfect, she needed to make something up to give me a hard time about. That and she had an obsession about how I know Barry Williams.
Shadoglare of Refractional Darkness, his lovely girlfriend and his girlfriend’s daughter showed up. It was nice to be able to see Candy and Skittle again. The last time I saw them was when I was helping Shadoglare move into his new apartment. However, Clone did take a shining to Skittle, he kept referring to her as “My girl”, i.e. “Where is My Girl?”
Wes of Bodhran (Drum) Roll, Please and his beautiful spouse showed up and entertained all with his excellent skills on the Bodhran. I was a little disappointed because he didn’t uphold his New Years Tradition of puking in my house. Apparently I’ll need to work on the alcohol combination more next year.
Little Joe of Little Joe’s Soap Box (soon to be Miasmatic Review Annexed Soap Box) was here. He spent a lot of time being charming, and trying to pick up chicks (literally) and putting things in their mouths just to hear them moan. Hey, it was some kind of dark chocolate; get your mind out of the gutter!
We did some serious damage to the keg; it’s mostly gone this morning. Also this brood drank a gallon of glogg. My lord people, they where hammering this stuff down like they wouldn’t get anymore. Oh yea, that was the last of it. I think a brief fight broke out over who got to drink the last couple ounces of it.
It was a great night, with a lot of good people. Of course there were some missing, ones that happen to be out of state. I won’t mention any names, but you all know who you are.
Happy New Year to one of my favorite families! I'm so glad y'all had a good time!! I'm grinnin' like crazy just reading the recaps....

Posted by: Harvey at January 1, 2007 04:13 PMKtreva twisted my arm for me to get the bodhran, but I'm glad you enjoyed it! ;-)
BTW, I was mixing drinks like hell (beer, glogg, Jack, glogg, glogg and glogg) and *I'm* surprised I didn't bloach all over your house, too!
Did I tell you how much I like the glogg...?
