So last night was quite excellent. I was not expecting to have a very good time because I’m socialized out, but I had a very good time. It was the Woodings, their friends the McNoughtons, Sam’s girlfriend Bev, and long time friend of the family John. So I knew everyone pretty well, and we had a good time. We counted down to midnight and then sang Auld Lang Syne while drinking champagne. I think Damian was the only one who knew all the words but he has such a booming voice that everyone else could mumble along and it sounded fine. Then we called Mom and Carla and sang Auld Lang Syne to them and wished them a Happy New Year. It was lots of fun.

We watched Memento today. That is a very good film. I recommend it.

I haven’t fleshed out my New Year’s resolutions yet. I desperately want a shower but Ben has beat me to it. We have four people sharing one bathroom so you have to be quick or you miss your chance. Also, they keep magazines in the bathroom. This means that a single bathroom visit by any individual can last quite awhile. I’ve learned to snatch the chance when I can.

I’ll work on my New Year’s resolutions while I’m waiting for my opportunity.
