An Early Night
Last night the temperature dropped to near -40, so none of us who'd gathered at Barb and Dave's house wanted to stay until midnight. An easy remedy was to ring the new year in at 9 instead of 12 (after all, it was midnight in Ontario). We were home by 10, just as Alan was heading out to his party.
Iris' friend Meaghan was in Time Square with her mom, so we watched a bit of TV in hopes of spotting her, but Regis was so horrible as a host that I didn't last very long. Joe and I were in bed by 11, and I don't think either of us made it to midnight before nodding off.
This morning I woke up to find two of Alan's friends sleeping in the family room. They've just left now. It's still cold, so apart from paying a quick visit to the woman who adopted Joe into her clan, we're all staying in today. Happy New Year everybody.
