If I weren't so strapped on making ends meat, I would look forward to New Years.
1993-94, went to Canada and saw Nirvana.
1995-96, went to Denmark/Norway for what was considered the biggest lan party of it's time in the world.
1998-99, drove down to Atlanta with some friends. It was literally 4 straight days of being drunk and the weather was awesome.
1999-00, went to NYC, wore the 2OO0 glasses and laughed at the y2k bug.
2001-02, was on Waikiki Beach because I was stationed there. But it was still so new and exotic to me at the time. Partied hard, and after that.... I really stopped doing New Years plans that exceeded going to a friends place or frathouse.
