Good to have you back with us.<BR/><BR/>As for NYE...anything that doesn't involve driving on Amateur Night is good since it'd be good to have you and yours with us for 2009. <BR/><BR/>Could you perhaps come up with a lovely chocolate fondue?<BR/><BR/>If you are really adventurous (and can still get to the liquor store) you could "drink the rainbow". This involves being able to make a red drink, an orange drink, a yellow drink, a green drink, a blue drink and a purple drink at minimum. You will, of course, not want to drive after drinkin' the rainbow!<BR/><BR/>Have a fun, safe NYE and look forward to seeing your posts in 2009!MsDarkstarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03849021024842781182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-918971720992761350.post-51313567648381288792008-12-30T14:16:00.000-06:002008-12-30T14:16:00.000-06:00I have to comment on Crissy's comment - when I liv...I have to comment on Crissy's comment - when I lived in Memphis, I belonged to a babysitting type club. Families paid a set fee to basically be guaranteed a sitter whenever. This lady/company head did background checks on all of us sitters and the families. I worked whenever I wanted to and got paid a minimum of $7.50 an hour. THey offered us crazy bonuses for New Year's or Christmas or any of the big holidays and guaranteed us like $12 or $15 an hour to sit. I made some serious cash. That's what Crissy needs.<BR/><BR/>And I like Kate's idea of board games. That's usually a staple when some combination of us gets together.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-918971720992761350.post-42960469665876105842008-12-30T12:49:00.000-06:002008-12-30T12:49:00.000-06:00Shelly, I totally vote for board games with the fa...Shelly, I totally vote for board games with the family. It's what my friends and I all do - and let me tell you, there's nothing like the character defects that come out when someone's getting shanked in Monopoly!Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01542230897888388433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-918971720992761350.post-48337730759993990882008-12-30T08:47:00.000-06:002008-12-30T08:47:00.000-06:00My Christmas was okay but I was really sick so I s...My Christmas was okay but I was really sick so I sort of just went through the motions to survive it. I kind of want a do-over now that I'm not so sick anymore. I'm still all snotty. My daughter had a wonderful day though so that's good. It's really about her anyway.<BR/><BR/>For New Year's eve because no babysitter in her right mind is available and also because I'm knocked up we will be having lobster and crab and fake champage and falling asleep around 10ish on the couch in our jammies.<BR/><BR/>I'm pretty excited about it actually. I've done all the other stuff and I'm really over it.

We can never decide what to do, even when we lived where there were things to do. Since mom is coming this year, we'll most likely sit around watching the ball drop on TV and getting fat from all the crap food I bought.<BR/><BR/>Also, I saw one of those white trees you wanted this past weekend. I'm glad you didn't get it. The one I saw was all pathetic and looked weird because it was white. Not that yours would have been weird, but maybe it would have been.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
