The Year We Had No Plans For New Years

Posted under Being RSG, Everyday ramble, Holidays and Vacations by Recovering Straight Girl

The kids are with their father on vacation and I spent the day de-Holidaying the house, filing, talking to my Dad on the phone, talking to myself a lot, and watching the marathon of my favorite show.

HG worked.

I didn’t shower until 5:00.

Why was I talking to myself, you ask?

Because I am just not used to being in this house all by myself.  I’m used to having to beg and plead for just five minutes of silence when the kids are here, and when they’re not; well HG and I are otherwise occupied, but I’m rarely here alone all day long.

The dogs are not good conversationalists, and frankly they were getting in my way a lot today.

Which brings us to,  we have no plans for New Years Eve.

Really, we were excited to go out and celebrate our upcoming DP, but since that isn’t happening, we find ourselves at a loss for entertainment, which is completely rare and atypical for me on this or any free evening.  Perhaps I should consider making some new friends and not pissing off the ones I have?

(Something to think about for the New Year.) 

So here we are and the only thing we can think of is to go to dinner (without a reservation,) and then come home to play cards or the kid’s Wii.

Holy Hell!  Someone call the press, it’s going to be mass excitement in the RSG/HG household!

Either way, whatever we do, we will be together to bring in the New Year, which I must tell you all is the very last in good year’s for awhile.  Good things happen in even years, and in years that end in seven, so live it up people, this is the end of the trifecta.

Until then, my friends.  Be safe with whatever debauchery you get yourselves into this evening, and keep in mind that NYE is amateur night.  Watch out for the crazies.  They are everywhere.

Ciao.
