Made Garlic Shrimp with brown rice and spinach for dinner - and also sweet potato pie for dessert later.. Ashley got one shrimp,
a favorite treat but a bit rich, so only one.
Then watched "Milagro Beanfield Wars" (borrowed from a friend's library) only had seen it once before - lovely film! and lovely New Mexico
scenery that I was very familiar with.

Played Words with Friends online with several friends, including Jostein...
Watched Perry Mason and McMillan reruns until I finally fell asleep - rpobably about 2 am.. No sense in trying earlier as the "thump thump" music from neighbors and the revelry on the street was especially intense.

Have preferred staying home quietly , with or without partner, for the last 40 yearsor so... but have a few outstanding memories
from my youth of eve and New Years Day..

is that it is an entirely alcohol-free zone.

I understand that in Britain the celebrations of more restrained,
cultured and refined:
