It’s been a whirlwind of kids getting ready for NYE parties: Y’s at home overnight, E baking up a storm for a party with friends, and K probably also with friends.  Stacey, still sick, will stay home with S.  Avdi will stay home to oversee Y’s party and provide rides.  I’ll show up at some point and hide out with us non-partiers for a while.

I think back to how my parents would always dress up in their finest and go out to NYC with friends for NYE, leaving us kids with catered-style snack platters and the tv.  Having a kids party was never even an option.  Such a different world.  Later, on my own, I’d go get drunk and freezing.  ATC, I think I much prefer staying warm and sane (and not too schnockered) at home with the Avdi’s and doggy.

May this coming year begin the Downfall of the perv criminals in the WH.  Cheers!
