At my HyVee liquor store you can. I'm not fond of Guinness, but I like it IN things. It was about $2.50.
You do well to flee, townspeople! I will pillage your lands and dwellings! I will burn your crops and make merry sport with your more attractive daughters! Ha ha ha! Mark my words! Ooh! Ale! I smell delicious ale!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
We have no NYE plans, and that seems just as well at the moment. I guess we'll celebrate at home with the kids. Sparkling apple juice for them and champagne for us.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
We were going to have the kids over for fondue, but then I got sick. So then I said, well, let's just do the fondue ourselves. And then the storm came in. So there's no way I'm sending the SO to the grocery for chunks of swiss cheese and beef tenderloin and shrimp. So yeah, no NYE plans here.
But! On the plus side, while the SO's in town, he's got the nook hooked up to the store's free wifi and is downloading books. So if he does get home, we can be stuck with lots of reading material!

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I have to do the same thing every year. Jon works, so I'll be there.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
No NYE plans here. Thought I'd go to the fancy new bar that opened up but they want a $20 cover. No frickin' way. Even if I could afford that. So I'll probably continue sewing my dress (if I haven't finished it yet) and packing for my trip. Since I have a gig, it's more important than ever that I not forget things at home.

There were plans and then there was the sick, so.

I think we'll be at our beer bar for NYE. Should be fun. If we're up to it.
I am not feeling up to much right now.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
My upstairs neighbor is hosting both a NYE party and a NYD brunch. I bought a couple of bottles of prosecco to contribute to the evening, and I may see about making cinnamon rolls for brunch, too, depending on how ambitious I feel on the 1st.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
There were plans and then there was the sick, so.
Yep. Same here.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
M is working the Hangover Brunch at 6 a.m. on NYD, so it'll probably be a quiet night of Fallout: New Vegas and Coronas for us. Maybe sushi from our favorite joint, if we're feeling wild & crazy.
