Blue Hairs R Us
|
Its official...I am morphing into an old fogey. In fact, I'm thinking of going out today and investing in a plastic rain bonnet, some rollers and a pastel housecoat. First of all...my new year's was not spent dancing the night away in a lovely little sparkly black dress, drinking champagne or kissing and throwing confetti. I did tell my husband though, as we went to bed at 10:30, that if he was awake at midnight, he'd darn well better kiss me. We spent the evening with my parents and sister and brother-in-law, drinking herbal tea and played Pictionary and Texas Hold 'Em. I realize "poker night" and herbal tea doesn't QUITE qualify me for old fogey status...but its only a few small steps to pinochle and Metamucil shots. Secondly, at midnight, when I was awakened by the sound of my neighbors, who sounded as if the strings of firecrackers they were lighting were being thrown at the side of my house...I had no urge to get up, stand outside and yell Happy New Year! What I really wanted to do was lean out the window (I can almost see the pastel housecoat and rollers now) and yell "SHUT UP! SOME OF US ARE SLEEPING!" So anyway...its New Year's morning and I'm headed out for a bowl of high fiber cereal and a cup of tea. A little "hair of the dog that bit me" you might say.   |
