    Funny ... I'm working New Year's Eve and I like it. I have a matinee and an evening performance and I'd rather be doing that than partying. Show comes down by 10:30 PM and I'll go home to JR where we will feast on scallops wrapped in bacon and crab cakes while sipping The Glenlivet I bought today.

    Had a NYE/going-away party a couple years ago where my coworkers and close friends all came over and everyone got way trashed. Had a dry-erase board in the living room and I woke up to it saying (in my handwriting, but I don't remember writing it) "Nothing says Happy New Year like puke in your front yard."

    Opened the front door and, sure enough, there was puke in the front yard. Took two days for someone to confess.

    I'm working NYE, at least until 8 because our deadlines are moved up four hours tomorrow night. After that, I'll either head over to a coworker's brother's party or go home and celebrate the New Year in solitude like last year.

    Asleep by 9 or 10, wake up the next morning, fly through O'Hare and hopefully *fingers crossed* make it back home in time for work at 4.

    I mean, yeah, I meant I wanted to bring it to show it off and make other people jealous. It's like driving a coconut. Who wouldn't want that?

    It's my least favorite holiday. I'll hopefully be drunk by 7. I'd give anything for Flag Day right about now.

    Surprised at all the haterade for New Year's around here. This is absolutely my favorite holiday of the year, bar none.

    New Year's is pretty personal for me. When I was in high school, I began dating my first girlfriend then, and we spent the next three together. Since then, I've spent it alone. So I just end up thinking back to New Year's Eve 1999, the good ones we shared -- and then the last five. It's the only time of year I get depressed because of sentimental crap like that.

    I don't want the girl back; just the feelings I used to have on New Year's.
