Happy new year, flist! it's 2009 and has been for... ooh, a whole hour and a bit. Folks just left and downstairs is littered with party detritus, though sadly not the traditional bamillion party poppers. It just didn't quite happen this time around. K&BW bowed out early and JR fell asleep with the kids so we had a game of 'Articulate' with the remainders, had bubbly at midnight and then slowly drifted away.
I might save the poppers for my birthday instead. Seems a shame to waste them.
BUT! It is a shiny new year and I have a shiny new semi-unofficial resolution.
As you know, my wall calendar for this year contains 4 pulp fiction novel covers a month. It's my resolution to try and write a short story based on one of the novel titles contained on each page. A fic a month, be it fanfic or original or whatever. The aim is to write more. I think it's achieveable.
For those who want to play along I'll post the novel titles at the start of the month and by this time next year I should have 12 tales to show for it.
Well, that's the plan anyway.
*shifty look*
Oh, and the pizza was good. And I'm really, REALLY massively over-full now. *burps at you*
On the other hand, given we were drinking beer rather than wine, I'm not actually that drunk so may for once begin the year without a hangover. That'll be the first time in quite a while.
