This is the end result of too many fireworks and bottles of booze on the only night of the year where it is not only excusable to get stupid, but encouraged. The lady to my right asked not to be identified for fear it might incriminate her chihuahua and the gentleman in the gray t-shirt, well, I have no idea who that vagrant is. I think he's german though. Here's to a new year. and thanks again for reading.

Happy frickin New Year!
I am working this fine, misty New Year's Day while my cohort is allowed the requisite recovery time from an excess of booze and fireworks.
And with that, I present some New Year's wishes":
May my headache go away.
May this year bring a waning in natural disasters.
May my New Year's baby story not be difficult to deal with.
May the road rise to meet you all.
