And the fireworks for local midnight begin.
Natter 76: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Foaminess
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
My sister got us tickets to see Paula Poundstone tonight, and she was hella funny. Now I'm in bed with my Theraflu. Hopefully the neighbors won't shoot their guns at midnight or I will get a GSD in my bed...
Happy new year! I'm pretty surprised to find myself awake.
I stayed up watching Brooklyn Nine Nine and Monk. Then about 5 minutes of the CNN coverage of Times Square. Alas, I still woke up with the sun so I walked the dog around 7 this morning.
Happy 2019 to each and every one.
Happy New Year, Buffistas!
Happy New Year!!
This was the first year we let the kids stay up until midnight to watch the ball drop. They were pretty squirrelly towards the end but we made it! Champagne toast for us, egg cream toast for them. We spent the intervening hours watching Willow and Nailed It! Holiday edition.
Dang it, there's another fraudulent charge on the credit card that was closed Monday, and when I called I found out the bank is closed for the holiday. I mean, I'm sure they'll take care of it tomorrow, but I'd rather fix it ASAP.
The funny part is that it's a huge charge at the Apple store, and given my past purchases, that wouldn't look like "unusual activity" to my bank.
Come on, 2019. Don't be like this.
I let the foster dog Buddy sleep in my room for the first time. Not in my bed, but the daybed. And oh my goodness is he a burrower, I found him under the covers AND a pillow when Bailey woke up at 4am to go outside.
I did indeed end up with a GSD on my bed at midnight. But she was very good and just curled up next to me with her head on my hip, and we slept well. However this is not going to be a habit, because I cannot deal with GSD hair in my sheets as well as everywhere else in the house.
I'm having an open house today and I'm at the "done just about everything" point, so I'm sitting down for half an hour with a cup of tea. My house hasn't been this clean in a while...
I feel like a need a new kitty because I miss sleeping with my nice warm kitty. Even though she used to wake me up by sticking her nose and tongue in my nostril!
