Happy Secular New Year!
It's only 11:00 pm here right now but, after getting only two and a half hours of sleep last night, and three the night before, I'm headed off to bed. E needs to work tomorrow, though I'm lucky enough to have the day off.
Told our youngest that he can stay up and read for the next hour and listen/watch the fireworks. E was surprised:
E - Fireworks? There's no fireworks!
Me - Yes, there are. They go off at midnight.
E - Since when are there fireworks?
Me - Every fucking year since they invented the damn things?
Youngest - Um, I remember them from last year. Our neighbors were setting them off from the roof.
Me - Yeah, those too. They almost set the house on fire.
Youngest - Fun times. Maybe they'll aim away from the house this year?
