Didn't sleep well, but not in an unpleasant way. I'd drunk too much juice and an entire bottle of sparkling cider so, you know...
Major flurry of activity and a nice breakfast in front of my great room front windows watching very little world walk by until mid afternoon.
Then collapsed into a nap, from which I've woken with a very gronky head. Not liking it.
Bartleby is still injured, so no big walks just now...not a sacrifice given the temperature. But we'll have to go out pretty soon.
Much laundry done, organizing, purging etc. More to come.
Yay 2009.
For a fun post-NYE drink lesson, Rachel Maddow shows how to make a Jack Rose. She's very strict about what constitutes real lime juice and how much you should shake the drink.
I slept until noon today. Got up and had leftovers and then cleaned a bit, then spent time on SL.
Oh I watched Sesason 1 Disc 1 of Muppet Show, well I'm only up to half of Joel Grey's episode, so not very far into it.
Yesterday at work we had several people calling to get payments in for the 2008 tax year. We had to explain that it was too late, there was no way to process them in time. And then I had to explain in the afternoon that no one was available to take their payment, and even if there was it was too late. Waiting until Dec 31 @3:00 pm to make a credit card payment over the phone is not a very wise idea. Especially since we are normally closed on Dec 31.
Happy New Year! We had a lovely gathering of some of our closest friends last night. We snacked, drank alcoholic and non, played Rock Band, watched the ball drop and toasted with many bottles of delicious champagne (and ND shared some of his new Christmas scotch, which was quite good), and went back to playing Rock Band, talking, and laughing a lot. The last people left just before 5 this morning, and we have just now woken up and are thinking about food. I have grading to do every day until school starts back up on Monday, but I'm thinking a nummy breakfast of some sort is necessary first.
Ha ha, episodes of Leverage On Demand. I've been meaning to watch this.
OK, I have done Stage One of dealing with paper/files/etc. So that's something. More tomorrow! Or maybe even later this evening.
And I see what TLC thinks people make their new year's resolutions about -- all night is shows about incredibly fat people.
woah is it cold out there. mac and I went to the AMNH and Planetarium with another child and parent. probably there 4 hours with lunch. now I want a nap.

She's a cocktail snob! We could totally go drinking together.
