There are worse ways to ring in the New Year

Standing on Baltimore Harbor, watching the fireworks, having just eaten one of the most decadent, not to mention expensive meals, of my life. Wearing a sparkly dress and satin heels. Flute of champagne in my hand. Huddled with Nina, Tipsy Dave, Mike, Al, Teresa and the blueberry (awww, blueberry!). Still all warm and heady from the fabulous wine and cocktails. Wearing one of those cheesy tiaras that say "Happy New Year" in glittery cardboard. Noise makers going off everywhere. Looking forward the creme brulee that's waiting for me at the table, which after champagne, will be my first taste of the New Year. Feeling very, very happy, but fondly thinking of all of you, wishing I could hug each and every one of you.


I hope all of you had fantastic new year. I love you guys.
