Happy New Year Blogger community!

We had a really good new years eve and I'm so happy to say, I didn't get hammered, black out or have to call anyone today to apologize. IT'S THE NEW ME!



We went over to a friends house for a potluck, ate like Kings and drank some libations. It was MY goal to walk downtown to see our version of Times Square. Sacramento doesn't really have much by way of 'cool things to do' so I just couldn't miss this.

(Marites, Kevin & Glen - the party hosts and Querkis)



And what's odd, is i'm pretty much the LAZY one of the group and as the athletic people hemmed and hawed about walking downtown in the cold weather, I stood my ground. We were going.


Kristin. I LOVE her!



Hmmm...Michelle looks a little LOOPY!


We donned coats, hats, scarves, mittens & beer and headed out. It was a fun kinda quiet walk with a few sporadic parties along the way. I'm always drawn to parties and i so badly wanted to break away, have a beer with new people and enjoy the moment, but, remember...i'm on a mission.

We got to 10th and K and it was packed.

It was vibrant, happy, crowded, honkey (as in horns) and screamy as in "WHOOOOOO....HAAAAPPY NEW YEEEEAR!" You couldn't really see the "ball" which bummed me out because I wanted to see it drop. Come to find out, it doesn't drop, just changes color and counts down. woo. way to go Sacto.

But the counting down was fun and when we were done kissing, hugging and snapping pix we headed off to find a bar...


Kevin, Graham, Sue, Michelle, Angelina Jolie, Glen Marites and Bob in the background.


Me, kevin & marites...


Hmmm....why what do we have here?????

So all the bars were massively packed and we were all getting irritated. We walked back to G&M's and decided we'd head home. It was 1:30am.

So, here's to 2009. May it be a better year than 2008. "May peace break into your house and may thieves come to steal your debts. May the pockets of your jeans become a magnet of $100 bills. May love stick to your face like Vaseline and may laughter assault your lips! May your clothes smell of success like smoking tires and may happiness slap you across the face and may your tears be that of joy. May the problems you had forget your home address! In simple words . . . May 2009 be the best year of your life"
