new year’s eve was nothing that i expected. original plans were not meant to be. at first i just felt abandoned and heartbroken, but i’m so glad things turned out the way they did. i ended up going over to big ash’s and saw kristin, melissa and jenny k, and we chilled in the basement and watched tv for awhile. just before midnight i stopped at the dreyer’s house and ended up staying until four in the morning. i worked on a lovely buzz, thanks to my lovely lauren and her smirnoff twist. thanks, lek. i decided to wear those gorgeous shoes again b/c the heel is perfect for my shiny beaded pants, and let’s be honest, they’re hot. so all the stumbling probably made me look and feel a little tipsier than i really was!
i’m so lucky to have these sweet, smart, generous, faithful friends who will always tell me i look beautiful and think i’m funny and just want me to be there, when i don’t even know or expect it. lauren the diplomat managed to wrangle all the girls and all the boys into the same house for the night, which was awesome b/c i adore em and jill and jess and lindsay, and jon, of course, but it’s so much fun to hang out with the boys, too, and it wouldn’t have been the same without everyone together. we played dream phone and watched new year’s rockin’ eve. scott and i raided the mint chocolate chip ice cream from the freezer. i stumbled around in my shoes and spike mauled me and lauren a couple of times. it was an awesome night. here’s to the new 2004.
new year’s resolution: to leave shorter messages on answering machines.
