Apologies to anyone who expected to see me New Year's Eve, but I was swept up in a delicious evening of absolute sloth. The original plan was to spend Sunday afternoon lounging around reading with Dan, then prettify myself and go partying that evening.
What actually happened:
Lounge around and read with Dan. Dan declares I should get Super Monkey Ball for my Wii. After a bit of debate as to whether this is actually a good idea or not (the only argument against buying being that it would consume the entire evening and then some), Dan and I acquire aforementioned game, order pizza, and spend the next 14 hours falling off ramps and bouncing off stairs and other general silliness in our eventually successful attempts to beat the single player mode. Midnight comes and goes unnoticed, and somewhere around 12:30 Dan happens to glance at the clock and say "Oh, hey, happy New Year." We decided to give up unlocking the hidden worlds somewhere around 8am since even going in a straight line was becoming difficult.
First day of 2007, I slept until 2pm or so, then played Zelda while Dan and Yoshi continued to snooze on the couch. At some point after boy and cat were fully awake we ordered Chinese, and I continued to play while they looked on until nearly midnight, at which point I drove Dan home.
A day and a half of nothing but reading and gaming with a good friend; not a bad way to ring in the new year. I hope everyone was able to spend their first night and day in an equally enjoyable fashion. :)
