Had a good new year. We had friends over, which was great - I forgot how much I like having company over. Thanks guys. You made a great evening out of what wuold have otherwise been a lackluster one :)
We watched a lot of unusual tv: Dr. Terrible's House of Horrible (very very bad and hilarious) and one channel was running Cirque de Soleil (beautiful people doing painful things.. or painful people doing beautiful things, take your pick). These are always more entertaining to watch with other people because of the MST3K effect.
We toasted in the new year with champagne/apple cider and watched the events in Times Square on tv - me privately happy that I wasn't out trying to celebrate in the cold and wind. I've done the "going out" thing at New Year's and it never seems to quite work out, and its always accompanied by dealing with the weather.
Had an extremely late morning eating leftovers and watching the Food channel.
I have no great pontifications about the new year=new beginning, time for renewal and re-evaluation. For me renewal and re-invention is constant, and I've already come up with a list of resolutions.
Its a decent day, with bright sun. I think I might go for a drive to soak some up, or read by the window again.
Sort of relieved that the holidays are over - now things can get back to (reasonably) normal.
