Happy arbitrary calendar unit rollover to all
Lessons learned from the evening:
- Party-popper excreta are hard to sweep, especially the little paper discs that lie flat and immovable.
- Bonfires are good (already knew that one really) but bonfires plus party-popper plastic is stinky.
- Not all red wine is delicious. Some red wine is very, very bad; bad enough to be still undrunk even when there's absolutely nothing else left.
- Friends are good to have around, even if you don't get to talk much to all of them.
- You will never get the chips-to-dip ratio right. There will always be less of one than the other. Don't stress about it.
- Hosting a party is a bit of a pain, but at least you don't have to worry about how you're getting home when you're slobbering drunk.
- Baroque opera is not ideal hangover music.
