Goodbye 2010.
I hope that 2011 will be a better year for us all.
I hope the troops are pulled out of Afghanistan and end this nonsensical loss of blood as well as money.
I hope America will again, (after about 40 years of stagnation) begin manufacturing something on our own turf. Anything. We'll be buying imported toilet paper soon.
The unemployment rate is not acceptable.
I'm frustrated today, I 've been invited to my departed friend's widow's home to have a few drinks with the family and then to another friend's afterwards.
My porcelain veneer broke off and I can't possibly afford to fix it for some time, it's one of my front teeth, but hell with it, that won't keep me from smiling.
I wish peace, goodwill, love and all those good things that seem only possible in Utopia.

thanks (:
When you said your porcelain veneer broke off I thought you meant your psychological social veneer had cracked and gone and you couldn't face socializing, ha ha ha!
Happy New Year 2011!!
Thank you, Lindsay for visiting :)
Gledwood, You're not far wrong. I'm tired out of parties, of drinking, of 20 people I don't know packed in 1 room.
With my one tooth out, I look like a hillbilly,but life doesn't stop and I'll save for the replacement.
I do need a social break, so you've got good insight.

@Gleds... that's something akin to what i thought at first too, but then the way you put it into words just had me laughing my ass off, NO OFFENSE to YOU, "J" (as I shall call you, seeing that is how you sign yourself)!
@"J"-- now this is some heartfelt, and also humorous, and also sensitive writing, and quite honestly... this is the best lil' piece about New Year's Eve that I read this year (or, rather, last year, bwah hahaha). Thank you for sharing this, because it's beauty would be shamefully lost to those of us who are thinking it but did not know how to put it into words that day, having gone through a crack in our own veneer, but more of the kind Gleds was talkin about. har har.
oh p.s. personally, my new year's was shit indeed. did you enjoy it at all after all?
pps... do you have absolutely NO tooth where this veneer broke, or is it broken? and if i may ask, and you can answer in my email if you wish or not answer at all or tell me to stfu, but what kinda money does one pay to replace a veneer?
Thanks Tattyanna,
You're awfully kind.
My New Years eve was spent both quietly with a few friends & chaotically with another, enjoying a few drinks and hopes for the new year.
The other party was in a smoky,crowded room full of boisterous drunks and I knew only the host, no one else. They were all so busy drinking and fixing up snacks & deserts, no one found time to get to better acquainted.
Back home in bed, I knew the was gonna be one big,nasty hangover keeping me company on New Years Day.
I went to the dentist today to get an estimate. It's gonna be about 9 hundred for the whole crown that broke off.{I have a splinter of the natural tooth that got broken by a beer bottle many years ago}It's the 2nd time it needs replacing.
He was nice to bond up a temporary tooth while I save.
So you and me both putting up with our cracked veneers,LOL, that's cute!

I love your attitude. You rock.
