Rose's daycare teachers use "booty" regularly, and it always strikes me as odd, since I do think of it as a somewhat sexualized term. So I can see where your sister is coming from, meara, even if it does seem to be commonly used.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Huh, my corporate holiday present arrived. Everyone in the company was given a fitbit Charge wristband.
Wanna trade? The Theatre's namesake gave us a DVD (Goodman history or home movies? I'm waiting for someone else to watch and report) a logo'd pen with a LED light and a logo'd keychain. Last year was wine.
I wandered in to work around noon, but I didn't leave until 7. What is wrong with me?

I got out a few hours early, took the dog for a walk and did some weeding.
Now it's off to dinner with some family friends, and then maybe a party. Should be a fairly quiet night.
Happy New Year, Buffistas!

Imma gonna carry one box of cookies out to the field for the fireworks. The other is for a brunch I hope to attend as long as I don't wake up sick.

We didn't get a corporate gift per se, but everyone in Operations got a frittata pan.
I bought one of those for myself last year, so this one will be going to my sister. Who makes a lot of frittatas. So it all works out.
Last year we all got asparagus steamers, which I also already had, but the gift one was a different style so I decided it was okay for me to have two. I might need to steam a whole lot of asparagus, after all.
OK, time to make some black-eyed peas, etc.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I don't think I'll be staying up to watch the ball drop this year. Instead I'll get a jump on the new year by hiding in bed asleep and surprising it early in the morning when it has a hangover.

I'll be initiating Yosemite download and going to bed after watching the fireworks. Hopefully it'll finish by morning.

I just got home. After a few years of dragging ourselves out, my friend C and I almost accidentally discovered that going out for early drinks and then retiring home to our respective dogs and couches made for a good entry to the new year.
I still need to schlep the dog out. Anyone want to come by and do that for me?

Or I'm impatient and start now. 2 hrs download to go....

I haven't decided if I'm staying up 'til midnight or not. I was up until nearly ten last night without even trying, so anything could happen.
