Happy New Year!

Well, it was a lovely night last night. Just a quiet-ish night in with M and J, who have kids to consider these days. The mark of a good friendship is that you never run out of conversation, and that was certainly true. I feel a bit guilty because we kept them up pretty late, and they were starting to think that one of the little uns could wake them up before they even get to bed, if you see what I mean.

Great food, too. Two of us got Italian cookbooks for Chrimbo and so we ate loads. It’s traditional in Italy that lentils signify money, so you eat them on New Year’s Eve to ensure opulence in the New Year. I dunno about that, but it certainly ensured flatulence. Good grief: I went downstairs to let Desdog out at 6:30 this morning, and when I came back upstairs you could have cut the atmosphere with a knife! Sheesh.
