To be honest.. after the Marines, holidays don't really mean much to me. Aside from the Hallmark Holiday's, New Year's is probably the least celebrated for me. Parents never made a big deal.. maybe a dixie cup of champagne.. they would let us stay up (when were 8+) and bang pots and pans outside at midnight.
The last few years, we would be either heading back from or be in Virginia.. this also occurred on most of our Anniversaries as well. Her Dad and Stepmom.
My buddy got an Xbox 360 for Xmas.. I've been trying to get him to sell me his Xbox so I have some stuff to do on these nights!!
lwb - Sorry you have to work.. that was one thing I did hate doing on New Year's.
Someday, maybe I'll tell the story about how my dad and I ended up in a gay bar for New Years. Good times.. Good times.
