December to Remember

With the holiday season upon us I've found myself making mental lists of what I want to accomplish before the new year. I'm not talking save the world type stuff - just little things that will help ensure this is the best December on record! I've asked my equally festive friends - Dana, Rach and Del - to share their hopes and dreams with me and here's what we've come up with:



Rachel:



1. Find some mistletoe

2. Get lots of presies from Del, Mere and Dane

3. Wear lots of sequins ala the Bar Mitzvah of 2003

4. Ice skate in Bryant Park

5. Try not to get my tongue stuck on the pole when I get double-dog dared

6. Bake for everyone

7. Canoodle with Del by the fireplace (hot!)

8. Totally embarrass myself at the company holiday party

9. Spike the cider

10.Toss back some brews with the labs at Chumleys



Dana:



1. Go to the gym. Yes that's usually a new years goal, but please, I

signed up in Sept and have only gone once. The inner tube around my

waist ain't shrinking with all the holiday parties

2. Fix the racing stripe on my head that is my roots

3. Try not to lose my job. This blog might just do that for me.

4. Buy something other than the Lord of the Rings for my pops for

Christmas. Why were there only three movies! Back to wallets and ties I guess....

5. Eat a turducken for a holiday meal

6. Figure out how a horse could kill a man via sex

7. Get kissed under a mistletoe (awwwwwwww- see I can be sweet)

8. Party like it's 1999.

9. Accomplish all of Jay's roommate Kyle's New Year's goals from 2005.

Two of them being 'join a gang' and 'fuck that shit'

10.Rinse and Repeat



Meredith:



1. Find the perfect reindeer sweater

2. Get stuck in a blizzard

3. Go to at least 4-5 holiday parties each week (maybe even in one night!)

4. Actually see a car with a giant red bow attached to the roof

5. Bring back whiskey game night

6. Watch Love Actually and Bridget Jones at least 5 times each

7. Have a snowball fight where Dana may or may not end up in a pile of garbage

8. Avoid Macy's like the plague

9. Take a trip to makeout city under the mistletoe

10.Form a band and/or write a musical



Del:



1. Piss in the punch bowl

2. Ring in the New Year in NYC

3. Presents - give some and receive some

4. Make it to a Yo La Tengo Hanukkah show at Maxwells

5. Try and actually like some sort of nog drink

6. To not look like the Christmas ham

7. Get the eff out of Dallas

8. Get my snuggle on with you know who

9. Have my car be healthy

10.Kidnap a child while he/she waits in line for a photo with Santa



Wow, aren't we all ambitious?!?!?!?!
