(46,179 posts)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.

(1,555 posts)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!

(10,418 posts)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.

(10,418 posts)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.
