Happy 2005!

Well another uneventful New Years Eve gone by. I seem to have very strange New Years Eve Karma because nothing ever goes quite the way I think it might, and it usually just sucks! This year was particularly interesting. Besides the fact that I was romantically alone (this is not unusual) however, I had at least gotten used to having someone to think about and call on the phone on New Years. So beyond the normal melancholy of entering a New Year with no one on your arm, this year started off pretty badly for a friend of mine as well when she totaled her truck on the 31st. She spent New Years Eve with her family at her apartment with enough bumps and bruises to make her walk like her grandma (that is a direct quote from her). I wish I could have made her feel better. So instead of partying it up in downtown Wilmington, NC I spent New Years with a couple friends I hadn't seen in about 2 years at Carolina Beach (Redneck Heaven). It was so nice to see them and I am very glad that I had the chance to catch up with them. Carolina Beach was fun, as long as you stayed away from the dirty old men that looked at you in a way that was just way too creepy. I would also like to note that it's not a good idea to approach men that have matching hats and shirts that say west coast choppers on them, enough said. We sat outside and watched the fireworks over the ocean and sipped free champagne. The setting was beautiful. So things work out in the end.

I spent New Years night at my grandmas in a twin bed, and now I'm in D.C. for the night on my way back up to NY. I'll be leaving for California on Monday. I've been dreading my return for the 2 weeks I've been away. I'm about to pack up my half of the apartment and move it to my new bachelorette pad in little Mexico, I mean Reseda, CA. Wish me luck!! I am excited to see my kitties, I've missed them. I only hope my little monster, Sam, hasn't peed all over the place by the time I get back! He seems to be having trouble finding the litter box lately.

I hope who ever reads this had an awesome New Years Eve too!
