Suffering Sukotash, tomorrow is Silvester!

Things We Say:

"After discussing such sunshine-y topics as Japanese Internment camps, and parasites hatching in human's skin, I think it is time for us to return to work, even though we four are the only ones in the whole branch here today."
Me, being my depressing self.

"I like when my collar bone isn't attached to my shoulder blade.  Feels sooooooo good."
Friend's facebook status. Poor dude.  But his sarcasm makes ME laugh.

"Nah I just shoulder checked the ground and put a giant crater in it and all I got was two torn ligaments" 
Same guy.  Getting in fights with the earth are hard to win.  

"Whewwwww....Finally, I'm ready to party for the New Year!! :D Got all the alcohol, the music, the snacks, and the hotel! YESSSS!!! Goodbye, 2010...Hellooooo 2011!"

I really thought this was funny. I have never seen so much excitement jammed into a facebook status. lol.

Blurb My Brain: 

On that note, I want to know how we came about drinking to celebrate the new year.  Did this come from the Mayan times, where we didn't know if there was going to BE a new year? Was this just another excuse to party? How did we manage to make it into a Federal Holiday?  And what happened to the New Year's celebrations during Prohibition? just wondering. Also, why do the Germans not call it Neues Jahr? They call it Silvester?

Featured Randoms:

So I saw this YouTube video of kids impersonating the most popular youtube videos of the year.  Pretty funny.  I suggest you watch it.  
Also, I have a music suggestion.  There is this singer named Ingrid Michaelson (awful name.. poor girl) and she has an amazing voice.  She has had a couple hits, but I didn't know her name before.  This is her youtube channel, where you can find several of her songs, and music videos.  The song that got me to look her up was actually a remake of a song by Cheryl Cole (not Sheryl Crow) called "Parachute."  Michaelson also has a hit out right now called "Maybe," and a previous hit of hers was "The Way I Am." You didn't know that you liked her, did you? lol.  All of her songs (and the rest of her 5 albums) can be found on iTunes.  Check her out.
