A night I usually dread

[jay]

This is a classic date/party evening. Since I'm not generally invited to parties, and can't usually find babysitting, invariably I find myself stuck at home on New Year's Eve, contemplating my own social undesirability. If I'm lucky, I'm visiting family back East and can express my frustration by blowing up some illegal fireworks after midnight. In California, even that's not an option...

I was contemplating going to see one of my past universities (Georgia Tech) play locally in a bowl game this afternoon, but I have no one to take along and probably couldn't afford the tickets ($60/each) anyway. So I'll stay here in the office. Feh.

Hey, so far I don't have any special plans except to spend this evening with my partners. No wild parties. No fireworks -- of which I'm envious of mikz, because he got to see Sydney Harbour fireworks for New Year's and they are the world's best.

I'm going to Whole Foods in Palo Alto to buy a few things, then I'm heading down to the office myself. You aren't alone. See you later!
