Happy New Year, Live from MonticelloI wasn't really sure what to expect from this New Year. Maybe I'd be in NYC, maybe not. All I knew was that without wheels, my options were limited. A few years ago, I had a streak of 3 years in which this usuallly lackluster holiday managed to surprise me. Snow angels on frozen lakes, cake fights, frat houses, poo finger!, and Guns-N-Roses...just some of the highlights. Would I be back to these good times? Or would I be stuck with the general run of this holiday?

It wasn't the worst New Years. I was back upstate with little to do. I called my friend's cell, but didn't try very hard to catch up with her or the party that was to go on. I sensed couples, lots of couples. Blech. So I stayed in, ate pizza, and watched Talking Heads videos from their
Once in a Lifetime Collection. The highlights for me included "Road to Nowhere," "Stay Up Late," and a couple of others. And shortly after (sort of), it became 2006. Hope that y'all had fun, whatever you got up to that night.
