Hope all 2 of my readers have a Happy New Year! I had the last two weeks of last year off, and didn’t do much except veg out on my couch, with the exception of a snowboarding trip to Mont Tremblant. It’s nice to get your batteries recharged once in a while.

New Years was spent at a party at York Event Theatre, which was packed to the brim with drunken revellers — everyone was extremely friendly and approachable — I guess it’s a New Year’s thing. Why do we need an excuse to be friendly and be like this all the time? I guess being New Year’s gives girls who otherwise can’t think of anything something to say to guys.

Afterwards, I met up with a few friends who crashed a stranger’s house party downtown in the clubbing district. This guy’s pad was a geek’s dream, with a nice sound system, big screen TV and high-tech toys galore. Apparently this guy works in computer animation. The fact that it was right next door to a club didn’t hurt things one bit.

We didn’t stay for long as it was already 4am, so we tried our damndest to get a cab. Unfortunately, so did the rest of Toronto. We decided to walk in the direction of home and even though we flagged a few down on the way, they all refused to take us since our trip would be too short. Those bastards!

All in all, I had a great time this vacation. Too bad I have to work tomorrow
