Happy New Year!<br>I celebrated at home with Ginger Ale and some major and minor fireworks. It's too risky driving back from somewhere late at night with drunks on the road.<br><br> <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="font-size:large;"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>Give me carrots, and nobody gets hurt!</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END--><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://pub19.ezboard.com/ftenchimuyo79943frm142" target="top"><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://freepages.misc.rootsweb.com/~allenfamily/ts/mirror.jpg" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--></a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END--><br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-size:large;">One Good-Looking Furball!</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END-->I'm playing Ryo-Ohki; in Tenchi Muyo <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.unitedanime.com/nnhp/TenchiSurvivor/TenchiSurvivor04.htm" target="top">Survivor</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://vote.sparklit.com/poll.spark?pollID=614772" target="top">4</a><!--EZCODE LINK END-->.</div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

Ah, nothing like Mario kart: Double Dash!! with good friends to ring in a New Year^_^ along with marathoning Secret of Mana!<br><br>Also played some "Cranium"-which is fun and multivaried-and drank a couple of glasses of some nice Rose red wine. And it snowed in Western Washington (GASP!), even in the Tacoma area, for a good 3 days or so, on and off (in fact there's still snow outside).<br><br>I definetly have good feelings for this year. Let's make it great.<br><br>~Chris <p>_____________<br>"If you tell the truth you don't have to remember anything."<br><br>-Mark Twain</p><i></i>

This was offically the first new year I was able to stay up to see. I am proud of that. I spent it watching tv with my family. Law and Order, Whose Line is it Anyway, and finally Most Extreme Elimination Challange on Spike tv. <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center">I am the one.</div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--><br><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center">I am Tsunami's apprentice.</div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--><br><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"> I am one of the few</div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--><br><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center">able to produce</div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--><br><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center">10 Light Hawk Wings!!<br></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

I spent New Years eve (30 minutes of it) at my old lady's mom's house. I was very uncomfertable there. They all seem weird to me. No one to converse with, my old lady talking with and hugging her family.<br><br>Then, New Years Day, I was putting a transmission on a bus and dropped it. It slipped off the jack. I got lucky. I was not in it's way. My assistant got scraped on his forarm and and the jack gave him a shark bite. Then the jack slammed into my tool box and moved it a good three feet. The trans didn't break any thing. The A/C compressor mounted on it broke some fittings, nothing major. Got the fork lift and repositioned it on the jack and got it stabbed in. Almost finished the job last night. Going in for over time to finish it today.<br><br>Happy New Year. <p><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-8/107598/Shavedhead2.JPG" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center">"Hashiriya are lonely drivers so, we do not need girlfriends."</div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

I spent the night of the new year chatting on AOL, watching Matrix Reloaded, reading fanfiction, and dring a huge cup of green tea... while the rest of my family were all at different people's houses partying. <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://live.quizilla.com/user_images/A/Anamya/1044491224_-aiFangirl.jpg" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--><br><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center">Kiyone Tenchi Survivor 4</div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--><br><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://pub92.ezboard.com/bv86sanimeandgamerscorner" target="top">Videl86's Anime and Gamer's Corner</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>
