A Bloggy New Year

A Bloggy New Year



We rang in the New Year very quietly.  It was the first time in 10
years we stayed in, not going to the usual party.  There were
decisions made with regard to ushering in the second year of the second half of the
decade.  We chose not to travel, just have a quiet and private
time.



The two of us (and the cat), some goodies from Mr. Kold Kuts and Murray's Cheese,
et al, and a vast choice of  TV coverage of the dropping of the
ball in Times Square.  We watched some of the return of Dick Clark
(that was heart-wrenching, and painful to see), a little of Carson Daly
(that was just painful - why is this guy on television?), and even
Regis Philbin on FOX (ever the pro, as though he'd been doing this
forever).  ESPN2, with Stuart Scott and Little Steven had the best
music and was my choice for most of the viewing.



After the ball dropped we went over to the SciFi Network and watched
the Twilight Zone marathon.  An eerie afterwards to the New Year,
but actually quite entertaining.



We did almost nothing on New Years Day.  I ushered the first day
of the new year in with a head cold, read a book, and lazed away the
day.  Look at it this way: things can only get better!
