HAPPY NEW YEAR !
My bride of 9 months, Mrs. Zenpundit and I rang in the New Year with a very pricey Italian dinner washed down with a number of Ketel & 7’s…followed by a bottle of champagne. We had declined a couple of social invitations, one by a dear female friend I call ” Loud ” ( because she is ) and another by an old, old, friend known as ” Big Larry “( because Larry is…well.. quite big) for a quieter but more enjoyable evening. I also kiboshed a trip to New York city as well because I could just not deal with the sort of idiocy live and in person that you see in Times Square on television. I guess being thirtysomething is to be a curmudgeon.
I hope all of you had a celebratory New Year’s Eve. Or at least an amusing one.
Predictions for 2005 tomorrow.
Cheers !
