I feel good. I feel bad. I feel....like breaking into song.

I feel good because I've had a buncha fun and connected with friends in good ways. I feel bad because I've had a buncha fun and connected with friends in bad ways. And now...

EVENTS: Monday was the Pomander's Club New Year's Eve Eve Ball; with Paul Price's Society Orchestra. Lots of onestep and foxtrots; a few waltzes, several tangos, one good polka. I was told to talk the event up and invite people, so I did; well, not the results I expected--6 women attended, and no men. Oops. Thankfully, women will dance with women, and it being a civilized dance, other men were very nice about asking women to dance. Had some lovely chats, some very nice onesteps, and two dances of great fun: A tango with KC, who was in rather a fighting mood and kept going for the lead (got it sometimes too) and a polka with KB, who really really enjoyed it. Much nice dresses. I wore tails, black vest, kilt. Need better socks!

New Year's Eve I hit two parties (worked the day). Both had virtues; the second was with old friends and some new ones, and had a great New Year's Kiss, something I've always wanted. And speaking motorcycles to friends is always nice. The earlier party had a great theme and passionate, dramatic, interesting theater people, plus an ADULT SIZED BOUNCE HOUSE! Everyone connected with their inner child, lots of jammies...my inner child likes to dress up and dance, be amazed. When you came into the party you had to sign the bounce house legal waiver and get your drink container, a bottle, which works really well--in a room full of drama queens waving their arms and talking, very little spillage!

New Year's Day: Football, as I always do--we've now had the game for 21 continuous years; some of the best players weren't conceived when I started playing. The field was try on top but wet beneath, so the footing was good but it was hard to really dig in and sprint, or turn quick--perfect for the me. Good game; threw for a touchdown, ran for a touchdown, caught another...until while throwing that touchdown, one defender hit another and the second one fell on my leg from the side/behind, popping the knee. End of my playing...knee is stiff, but not too bad.

Then, pizza, gaming, gaming...oh, and a costume fitting.
Wow. Buncha stuff.

Plan...stay on holiday outs until Sunday, start protien fast then. Haven't checked weight. Fight tonight, Saturday. Work in Modesto tomorrow--hmm, check for gym.
