Man, was I tired today. For some reason, this weekend drained me, and all systems shut down this afternoon. I had to take a quick power nap. Before passing out, I wanted to play some CrimeCraft, but since the server was down for maintenance, I booted up Torchlight again, and that game sucked me in for hours again. Think I'll have to spend more time with it so I can properly level up my character.
Met up with one of our friends who recently moved out of state, and we of course had to re-celebrate the New Year with copious amounts of alcohol. *cheers*

It's our second day into the new year! Hope everybody had a safe transition from old to new. Here we are preparing for our annual belated New Year's Bash. A few friends are coming over for food & drinks, and discuss our good intentions for the coming year ... knowing that we'll most likely get none of them done.
Today we relaxed, did some shopping, prepping, and a feeble attempt at switching out a broken brake light, so a trip to the auto repair shop is on the schedule for later today.
