Update XIX: Melancholy and the Infinite Napping

BBQ at a friend's place... lots of good food and wine. Probably some 80s/90s music.

I wouldn't mind a glass of chardonnay, but I have a 2 hour drive to make New Year's afternoon on six hours sleep.

...oh honey no.

[Indy Texas]

0315 - Wake up
0400 - Watch the official birth of 2015 in Kiritimati, Kiribati.
0515 - Get Ready for Work
0700 - Drive to Work

I am so confused...why wouldn't you just wake up at 4:00 to watch...whatever you're watching? Why do you need 45 minutes to get ready for that? If you're going to shower and dress and all that anyway at that time, then why are you spending nearly two hours getting ready for work later on?

[Keystone Phil]

what kind of pre-season super cup is played in December??!?

Napoli requested that it be moved because it was originally scheduled between our two CL playoff matches.

You a Napoli fan, KP?

This is a well known Forum Fact.

You just lost some cool points (CP) in my mind, pal. #ForzaJuve

Wow. Nauseating. See you Monday.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Hopefully getting laid if I'm not too drunk.

Yuck, yuck, yuck. Their decline down the league table can't come quickly enough.

You might be moving down a spot on my buddies page if that does not occur lol (I'm not holding my breath - Juventus is strong as ever this year)

More like rest of the league is still average, at best.

What's up, guys!  I am breaking a two week moratorium temporarily to post my New Year's Eve schedule for 2014/2015:

Tuesday, December 30, 2014 - 2200 - Bed time
Wednesday, December 31, 2014:
0315 - Wake up
0400 - Watch the official birth of 2015 in Kiritimati, Kiribati.
0515 - Get Ready for Work

What are you going to be doing from 0316-0359 and 0401-0514?

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

Focus on Christmas focusing.

[Lief 🗽]

Isn't it weird that Bushie spends months focusing on Christmas, but then a week before Christmas he's already moved on to focusing on focusing on New Years?

Always focusing on the future... Christmas is too close.

Not too soon to focus on Christmas 2015.

Nah, next we've got Easter and Fourth of July.

This might answer IndyTexas's question, too, but before 0400, I will probably hop in the shower to get my eyes open, then from 0401-0514, I'll probably watch the morning news and watch the Chatham Islands enter at 0415 and New Zealand at 0500, thinking about our friend DC as he becomes one of the first Atlasians to ring in 2015.  0515-0545 will be getting ready for work, then 0600 is Fiji's turn.  0615-0659 is breakfast, then I will leave at 0702 right after Sydney opens the book on a new year.  I should get to work a little before Guam enters at 0800...  While I am working, I will have one screen on my work and the other screen on a countdown for Oklahoma and a World Clock so I can watch the next several cities all the way from Guam to Cameroon (in honor of my cousins).  I will miss London and the Azores Islands at 1800 and 1900 respectively as I will be en route to Tulsa, but I'll catch Brazil, Greenland, and all of Canada and the lower 48.

I've got an app on my phone that will immediately start the countdown to Christmas 2015 when the Christmas 2014 countdown reaches all zeroes.

I will be thinking about Easter starting January 2.  I won't move on to Memorial Day and the Fourth of July until April 6, the day after Easter.

I swear I thought the same thing the other day and was going to post it on his FB. Another mystery surrounding Our Dear Friend.

[Mr. Morden]

I will miss London and the Azores Islands at 1800 and 1900 respectively as I will be en route to Tulsa...

How will you be able to live with yourself?

[Joe Republic]

God damn it I knew I should have trusted my instincts and kept New Year's Eve as the second most valuable property in Update-opoly instead of changing it to the 4th of July.

[Joe Republic]

I am a terrible, terrible person.

Allow me to give you some background.  'Opportunity Village' is a charitable organization based here in Vegas that for several decades has worked with people with learning difficulties to help get them meaningful work and a path to self-dependence.

The free newspaper that came in the mail yesterday featured an article about one of their clients on the front page.  I read the first paragraph and busted out laughing.





Again, I am a terrible person.

[Ban my account ffs!]

We can call him Bushie-sam.  And yes Joe you're terrible...like most people.

[memphis]

There are lots of jobs that people with mild to moderate cognitive disabilities can do. It's a shame Bushie is too proud to do them.

[Gustaf]

I'll be in Malaysia.

[King]

Bushie, I think it's time to put any diet aside and celebrate the Philadelphia Eagles' elimination from the postseason with some authentic Italiano a la Domino's Pizza.

[AndrewTX]

How is bushie not dead yet.

[Bacon King]

I saw Bushie accidentally posted an Update in a new thread so I fixed it for him
