Happy New Year

OK...so my withdrawal from Luxor wasn't as bad as I thought it was. Although, I did have to download a free copy, but that was just to show my friend the game. I only played 2/3s of it! 8 more sleeps until I can play it again...

I had one of the best New Years I've had in ages, probably ever! New Years is one of those mushy holidays only meant for slutty singles and couples. Everyone else pretty much hates it, unless they have the time and money to take off and do something cool. Otherwise, you're stuck in a bar or some house party with snuggly couples who are kissy kissy and who make me puke at this time of year. I'm not bitter, really I'm not.

But this New Years was different! I spent it at my good friends house (she happens to be married to a great guy) and I invited a classmate of mine. There was also another couple who brought their 10 month old baby boy, who pretty much slept the whole time. We had great appies and wine. We made boulibaisse and had a fantastic salad and more great wine. We played games like Cranium and Skatergories and stayed up until ~4am- only because the booze ran out! There was no awkward PDAs (public displays of affection, for those of you who don't know the cool-kids lingo) and lots of laughing! Happy New Year is right! Breaky the the next day was great and I spent New Years Day relaxing and preparing for the week...ophthomology here I come!
