Journal Entry:
Woke up with the expected hangover, but not as bad as it could be. Decided what I really needed was grease so made a Hungry Jack (Burger King)run for double Whoppers for Chris and I. Chris is really not doing well which is not surprising considering the rare form he was showing last night. Spent most of the day watching TV (including the ball dropping in New York). Walked to Fox Studios to catch a move - Inspector Gadget - I wasn't impressed, it was average at best. It was really weird when I realized as I was leaving the theater that as I was finally getting over my hangover most of my friends and family were just celebrating the new year!

Sof and Chris had other guests coming for the night so I arranged to stay at Susie's and packed up. Had a bad Chinese takeout diner, then watched the video Two Hands.
