LAST new year, I didn't stay up. I fell asleep at about 9pm. Not because I wasn't excited for a new year(was 2008 something to be excited about?), but because I had just driven up the coast of California all day by way of an Indian Casino.
Anyway, this year I stayed up. After all, what's a party without alcohol, Rock Band, Rock Band 2, Stratego, girlfriends, ex-girlfriends, and pong?
After the ball dropped (the one in Time Square), everyone stood up and hugged each other, wishing - freaking hoping for a better year than last. 2009 will be better. It will be different. But remember that we make our own fates, and nobody but ourselves can change our lives and better ourselves.
So happy new year, and happy birthday America.

It would have been a fun party if only current girlfriends were there but maybe I'm just old fashioned....
