A Happy New Year's

Okay so for all my bitching and moaning about New Year's, I had SO much fun. I'd forgotten how that works sometimes. I remember as a kid, dreading certain events and activities only to discover that, hey, they were great! 
 
We went over to our friends' house and saw other friends we haven't seen since Greg's summer volleyball league. We played Guesstures--I totally suck at that game, by the way, and I kept getting body parts or things I could only describe using body parts ("rear" and "bosom" are two that I recall off the top of my head). And we watched Roger Rabbit because it was on tv and nobody could quite remember how it ended, ate a TON of "bad for you but good tasting" food (Doritos, cookies, Bagel Bites, corn dogs!), played the dice game and broke in our new Wii system. The Wii was fabulous! We played tennis until we were sore and boxed until everyone was out of breath and sweating. Sounds gross, but it was great!  
 
On New Year's Day, Greg and I made breakfast together and then promptly slept for another two hours in front of the television. Football games make for great white noise when you're trying to blank out your mind and get some sleep! Then I FINALLY fixed my iPod, which is to say, got (most) of my music loaded back on after my hard drive crashed in September and then in the afternoon/evening, we met our New Year's Eve hosts at the movies to see National Treasure: Book of Secrets in our little downtown theater.
 
All in all, a pretty awesome holiday and a great start to 2008! : )
