Did You Get Drunk on New Year’s Eve?

It’s going to be an early night for me this New Year’s Eve, and not because I’m drunk. Yes there was a glass or two of champagne, but mostly it will be because of getting up at 4 AM this morning, and my wife having to work. I probably could have taken a nap, but missing the ball drop isn’t the worst thing about falling asleep early, it’s missing the Chicago party coverage with Janet Davies and Marc Giangreco on ABC 7 Chicago. It’s so much fun poking fun at the people in the crowds and, even knowing how hard they are working, how dorky the coverage is. Oh well, we DVR’d it so there will be some TV viewing in the morning, and although not hung over, I’m sure I’ll feel like I slept like crap mostly because of our dog, Milo. I’m guessing the first morning of 2013 will start like the last morning of 2012, with Milo waking us up wanting his breakfast.

And with that this first plight of the New Year is simply: Did you get drunk on New Year’s Eve?

That’s it for this plight! I’m The Dude on the Right!! L8R!!!

The Bachelor Women are Back, There’s a Tardis-Shaped Mug, Rubber Tires Attack, and Abraham Lincoln is a Vampire Hunter

It’s a New Year, Stu Gotz is back, and the crazy women on The Bachelor have returned – So far 2012 is proving to be a fabulous year, and during this podcast episode of our “Weekend Wrap-Up!” podcast we wrap up our 2011’s and look forward to the 12’s.

Yup, as 2011 wrapped up, Stu and I saw a bunch of movies, so Stu summarizes “Hugo” and “The Adventures of Tintin,” both in 3-D, while I let Stu know if he should see “Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol” or “The Descendants.” Stu doesn’t really tell me if I should seek out a movie called “Rubber,” explains he didn’t like “The Adjustment Bureau” nor “The Green Lantern,” and I couldn’t tell if he was really looking forward to “Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter” but it really is a movie supposedly coming out in 2012. As for me, I give Stu the skinny on “Rise of the Planet of the Apes,” try to egg him on to watch “The Bachelor,” but tell him that in a worst case, if it’s back on next New Year’s Eve at the end of 2012, some of the best television watching is the ABC 7 Chicago, New Year’s Eve Countdown with Janet Davies and Mark Giangreco for reasons I still can’t totally put into words.

We both got things we wanted for Christmas (Who knew they make a Dr. Who Tardis Mug that’s square?), neither of us seem to have any resolutions for the new year, and it will be nice to get back to normal after the Holiday season.  We start with a podcast.

Thanks for listening!

That’s it for this one! I’m The Dude on the Right!! L8R!!!
