NYE sucked! But it is probably one of my most hated holidays. I never have really gotten it. I want to go outside and such, but it is so cold, then it just so happens to be in the middle of the night. The clock changes, and ya, what just happened. Weird to me.
I did pass up a huge opportunity though on NYE. Family friend is all in with the forest service and we live close to the mountains. He does a big start up there each year you can see from the city. People take turns hiking up to it at night and carrying gas to the generator and getting it lite.
Well this year, not sure how he got this, but he got permission from the forest service to go blow 2 lbs of dynamite up on the mountain. When he called me I was already at parents house, by his house, without any of my stuff to get up the trail. So I didn't want to freeze my tail off and didn't go. But I was home 5 miles away and outside at midnight to watch the fireworks and heard a nice boom from by the star, no explosion light though, thought there would be some of that, but I guess that shows how bad I have let my "I earned my pyro degree at 13" license expire.
