New Year's Eve: The Most Boring Holiday after Arbor Day
 

Debate.

Well, if you lives in So Cal, I thin you'd have a different opinion. :)

On the dullest, soberest New Year's Eve, you still get to sing "Auld Lang Syne." All you have on Arbor Day is "Oh, My Arbor."

Yes, because my spousal unit falls asleep by about 9pm and then it's just me sitting around with the cats until the new year arrives - looking suspiciously like the old year.

Since having to sit at home with my parents for far too many New Years' past, I'm dedicated to doing something interesting on New Years.

It's why I hopped on a bus and became a bum on the streets of Pasadena for 24 hours back in '96...and met GD. That tradition ran its course, and now we're in on a certain party tradition. If that stopped happening, I'd throw my own party, or something. Being bored on NYE: Not allowed!

New Years will be spent celebrating Christmas with all the relatives that are out of state during the actual Christmas holidays-meh- better than staying at home I guess.

My monkey and I spend every NYE at Disneyland - and once again we'll be there - this time from opening in 2006 till closing in 2007. We have a tradition of having Space Mountain as our last rollercoaster of the year, and our first rollercoaster of the year, usually in about an hour and a half span :D

Your monkey?

I rarely do anything exciting for new year's eve and even when we go to a party I've never been at one where Auld Lang Syne was sung.

That said, I do something for NYE more consistently than for Christmas, Fourth of July, or Memorial Day so it isn't anywhere near the bottom the list.

I shall not have a boring New Years
