Countdown to 2009

Well, Christmas is finally over (thankfully), and in a few days we will be celebrating the very beginning of 2009!!! I think I am still in denial that the year is almost over! I don’t have any plans for NYE yet, but if I do anything it will probably be cl0se to home since I’m scared of driving on that particular night every year. Last night, I went out with my girl for dinner and in the 30 miles I had to drive home from her place, I saw 4 cars pulled over and getting sobriety tests from highway patrol. That’s a cop on average less than every 10 miles. Scary. Tis’ the Season!

Christmas was pretty quiet around here. Just hung out with some friends at the house and had a little dinner party. I made a beef roast with mashed potatos, vegetables, and a spinach salad. I think the best gift I received was a wine preserver which sucks the air out of a wine bottle after you seal it, handy stuff. The two days before Christmas kicked ass at work also, which was a nice holiday surprise for me.

Hope everyone had a great Christmas with their families!!!
