This year, as we have for several years now, we rang in the New Year at Zach and Sarah's house. This was the first time all four of us were living in (practically) the same city, so it was really easy. I even had dreams of going home after the party to sleep in my own bed. This was mostly because I wanted to do things on New Year's Day and I knew it would be easier to accomplish those things if I woke up in my own bed. But then I fell asleep sometime between the pouring of the champagne and the drinking of the champagne and those hopes were dashed. My massive hangover, compounded by riding the train early in the morning, did nothing to help my productivity. Instead of shopping, doing laundry, and making turkey stock, I sat on the couch and dozed my way through many hours of TV.
All in all it wasn't a very auspicious start to the new year. But it's not like that actually means anything beyond the fact that two games of Rage Cage in a single night is too much.
This is the part where I'm supposed to make a New Year's Resolution in order to better myself. But honestly? I'm in a really good place. This time last year I felt like I was in limbo, but now my life is pretty stable. I'm having fun learning to cook and cooking more often. I've been decent about going to the gym (well, until I hurt my knee). Work is good and I'm planning a wedding.
I guess that in the new year, I just want to continue doing these things. Keep cooking and cleaning and going to the gym. Keep reading and watching TV and hanging out with Kevin. More of a continuation than a resolution, I suppose. Life is pretty good right now, and this year is shaping up to be every bit as awesome as the last year was. Here's to 2014.
