Snappy New Year

Thanks Collins!


My New Years Eve consists of:

Guacamole
3 Girls in a shower together*
Pizza (um .. gross)
Furniture moving
Dusting and vacuuming
NYE Live from the Lincoln Center
Karaoke
Pee Wee's Playhouse
More karaoke
Nintendo DS
High School Musical Everything
Girl talk
Goofy text messages
Spa night
Nail time!
Blockbuster run
Veggies
Jammies

*Ok... So the 3 girls are actually Zoe, her friend from school, and her cousin. Momo G is supervising the showerage.

I figured that since I was going to be in SA, and don't know many people, I'd just stay home and have some fun with Z. So we planned a par-tay!

We've got a karaoke machine and food and silliness going on. At 9pm, we are going to have sparkling grape juice.

{update}
Sparkling grape juice is disgusting. It also has 38g of sugar per serving. Never ever ever again.

Sis #2's 7-year daughter: "I like champagne. I've seen drunk people before. They are idiots."

She drank a big glass of the stuff and now says she's burping all night. And NO. It wasn't champagne, but I couldn't get them to stop saying that it was. The French would be completely aghast if this is what champagne tasted like.

I didn't get the girls to sleep, but between Zoe's whinese, and lots of "tooting" (it's funny doncha know), I did get them settled into a DVD of Over the Hedge.

It's now 10:40pm and I'm going to take a very long, very warm shower. Then I'm going to make it a Blockbuster night. I'm only a little bummed because they say what you are doing on NYE is what you do for the rest of the year. This is not a good sign for my 2008. I'm tired. Sore (and now yay --- a fever blister on my lip --- no kissing for me). Cranky. And in need of some peace and quiet. Maybe I'll meditate my way into 2008 (serenity now). At least my skin will be soft and I'll be squeaky clean. Well that and... I'm alive!!! How cool is that? I'm going into my 2nd year of my new life.

(and yes, I'm just glad to be with my parents and my daughter tonight... I'm lucky and blessed, but you all know this already)

I wish you all much peace, love, good health in 2008.

I can do this. Because it's a Happy New Year.

Your assignment today is to vow to never drink sparkling grape juice. Who's with me?

And tonight, I also prayed. Prayed for the many loved ones we lost this past year. I miss you all... every single day.
