Victory Is Mine

Today was a good day. I got my New Year's Eve plans all squared away and I did it all by my lonesome. I didn't have to drop any names or anything. I got reservations at one of THE parties to go to all on my own and I'm pretty fucking proud of myself. I won the anuual Los Angeles New Year's game just by being my sweet, charming self. (Ok, everyone stop laughing. I CAN be sweet and charming when I want to be.... No really... I can...) Go figure. Granted, I had to go in and meet with the "reservations team" at this club and it was like going to a fucking audition, but it paid off so yippee skippee. I don't have to stress over that anymore... I also had a surprise visit from S-boy, which is always a welcome distraction. Unfortunately he's going out of town again next week and will be gone until after the New Year. That kinda sucks since I'm not heading back to the ATL until the 23rd... I need some more friends in this town, especially since the few I do have always all seem to be MIA at the same time. Then I'm left to my own devices and get bored and we all know how badly that can turn out... However, I do have another cute friend who may be going to see "The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe" with me tomorrow night, so we'll see how that goes. Hopefully he'll be able to go. If not, maybe I can talk S-boy into going with me. I'll go by myself if I have to, but I'd rather have some company... The day did take a slightly weird turn on the way home though. My car got hit by a bird or a bat or something. Seriously. I saw movement out of the corner of my eye and then something fairly sizeable banged off my passenger-side window. No damage done to the Pony aside from a nasty bloody streak on the window, so hopefully whatever it was died instantly and didn't suffer. But ick. Call it Darwin's Law though. Anything stupid enough to fly into the side of a car probably shouldn't be reproducing.... All right. Time to call it a night. Review of "Narnia" tomorrow if I don't get home too late... My happy thing for today is that the Holiday movie season is officially in full swing now. Lots of good stuff coming out between now and the end of the year...
