Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Happy New Year!

Our wings are not tired.

Happy New Year!

Watching the live stream of the Mummers Parade in Philly. Love it.

We stayed home, partly because DH was not feeling good, and the dog freaks with all the fireworks. I should open my champagne now and have a mimosa or three.

I hope all the sickos feel better today.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I hope all the sickos feel better today.

Working on it, but not there yet. Maybe a mimosa is exactly what I need -- lots of vitamin C in a mimosa!

Happy New Year!

Calli, I'm so grateful to you and C. and A. for taking such good care of Javier. I miss him and you all, though this has been a wonderful vacation.

I woke up with a raging sore throat, which is a bummer, but since I spent a lot of my Long Island time around toddlers, I'm not that surprised. I just hope I don't pass it on. We're sitting around watching The Great British Baking Show and Terry's making migas, so things are pretty good. I'm not ready to reflect on my year yet, but maybe later today.

Jesse, I'm looking forward to reading the 50 good things.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Timelies. I fell asleep before midnight. Neither kid texted me (boo) and I got just over 8 hours of snooze time. Woke up in pain so both pain meds and anti-anxiety meds have been deployed. My docs office is open tomorrow. Need to see if my dentist is open tomorrow too do we can rule out any actual dental issues. Today will be drugs and sleep.

Happy F-ing New Year.

Managed to go back to bed at 7 and got in another 3 hrs. But now neither cat will get out of bed!! Both still upstairs.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

There were minimal fireworks here last night (or gunshots, thank heavens). Went to bed at 11, dog was completely unfazed.

I have dumped out the last of the open wine (January is dry), and now I need to clean the kitchen and go pick up a friend for our annual NY Day hike. Then visit Dad, who apparently was quite disoriented yesterday, sigh.

Suzi, I hope you feel better soon.

I know I've posted this before but I just came across it on Linda Holmes' list, so here's that awesome movie-dance vid that makes me happy and is a great way to start the year: [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That was one of the things I just watched, too! So good. I'm also keeping Richie's convenience store number from Magic Mike XXL in an open tab.
