The way I’ve spent my new year’s eve:
+ working out with Brian, which was good and will give me sore abs tomorrow.
+ cleaning the house. It’s always good to start a new year in a tidy home.
+ going out for dinner — we went to our favorite Mexican place downtown, which was pretty deserted. It was nice; I am used to a city where you need to make your dinner reservation two weeks in advance and then count on massively jacked up prices for 12/31. We split an enchilada combo platter and it was perfect. then we got churros for dessert, to go.
+ coming home, turning on the fire, making a pot of decaf, putting on PJs, and watching a marathon of “The Biggest Loser: Australia” on Tivo.
+ reflecting on our past year and what we want to do in 2008
+ watching live Radiohead performance on current TV
+ [censored]
+ watching some Repo Man, then switching over to watch the Space Needle fireworks at midnight, which were hilariously botched by technical issues.
to me, this is pretty close to perfect.
It sounds very nice. Happy New Year to you!
