Too Early on New Years Day
My body just woke me up...but I'm going back to bed. I won't be fooled into getting up at 7:00 on New Years Day!!!
Anyway, New Years Eve was fun. Here's a shout out to my friends...here's how great they are...I was at a party with all married couples. It could have been a moment of "woe is me" but I didn't let it make me feel sorry for myself. We did the normal snacking, playing games, and chatting. I even got some good tips (dirt on the guys) and stories from the girls. Anyway, after the countdown when we were toasting, it was that dreaded awkward moment where all the couples kiss and I tried to wait the appropriate couple of seconds before giving my own friendly hugs. The guys all "attacked me" and hugged me and kissed me on the cheek. I think there might be a photo of proof out there somewhere. It was sweet and I felt loved...
Speaking of feeling loved, did anyone else watch "Dick Clarks New Years Rockin Eve" We only had it on for the final minutes before and after the countdown. At various times pre and post 10 count, different stars were wishing Dick speedy recovery...which is nice and all...except for a few of them. There were a few that seemed so fake and forced. .I could just be being cynical, but I'm not really typically a cynical person. It just seemed that way to me. It didn't sit well with me...if you're going to bother, you should really be sincere. Sigh, oh well...enough ranting.
I hope your New Years Eve was either great fun or totally anti-climactic. Whichever you prefer. It's a new day and New Year. May yours be amazing. I'm going back to bed.
