I read that the way you spend your New Year's Eve is the way you will spend your year. So I suppose I can look foward to eating in unnaturally and unbearably freezing cold restaurants (that is Brigham's coat wrapped around Will, not a napkin) where waiters throw food at our faces. And Andrew will deal with quite a bit of frustration at not catching it.
On the other, less literal, hand, perhaps it means that we will go to a bit of expense and trouble
to try to get out of the house
and do memorable things
which we will not capture well with our camera. I am hoping that my self-help books will have some influence this year, too.

Alexandra, I love your blog. You are so funny and honest about everything. I love that about you.
Now I'll have to try and remember what we did for New Years and decipher the meaning behind it...looks like a fun outing!
Sheesh--I really hope my New Years is not a sign of things to come this year. I stay home and read blogs and go to bed at 9:30
Oh, wow, I loved this one. I'm just laughing out loud about it because it hits so close to home - every line, every picture. Let me know how those self-help books work out; I could use a stack or two out here!
Hi, I'm Holly's sister. You wouldn't happen to be at the Japanese Steak House in Columbia, MD, would you? I've never been more cold at a restaurant than at that one, and considered actually using the napkins for blankets. We used to live in Columbia, and frequented the Baltimore Aquarium as well. And I agree with you--too pricey. But if you go on a nice day, you can enjoy a walk around the inner harbor, too. Oh, I miss it.
Ada, the resaurant is a Japanese Steakhouse in Fairfax, Va. The staff told me that it was freezing because they had to keep some sort of flue open to release the smoke, but I didn't believe them at the time. Maybe they were telling the truth and I just need to stay away from such establishments during cold weather.
Holly, so great to hear from you!
