reading and/or watching tv, until 10:00 - 10:30. It will be peaceful, and I'll be content.

Then I'll go to bed and be up before dawn.

No celebration; I left that behind many years ago. I figured out that the new year arrived without my losing any sleep over it.

I have lived in the Atlanta, Georgia, area for the past 20 years but have never seen the peach drop.

Since I have to work in the morning I'll be sleeping before 12:30. I sure don't party like I used to.

Can't too wild anyway since I have work tomorrow, but I will knock back a shot of some spirits on the exact midnight hour; a tradition for me on those NYE nights I actually have off.

I'll have my doggie & kitty, we'll enjoy some steamed crab legs, some black-eyed peas for good luck and a glass of champagne. We'll likely be all snuggled up for sleeps by 11pm.

Happy New Year!

Sorry, this thread needed a little bit of that. It's way too mild mannered in here.

I'm going out to dinner with my wife. Then we'll head home and get our drunk on and ring in the new year having wild sex.

I envy your youth and/or stamina. In reality, I usually have to schedule the wine on one night and woman on another...me being 40 and all. The sex got scratched tonight. She's in bed with a belly ache. So it's just DU and brewskis for me tonight. And music, sweet music.

but tomorrow getting together with friends, as we have every New Year's Day since 1978. Food, football and fun! It centers around the Rose Bowl game where people take sides and we have a lot of fun with it..........
