I am.
Well, I work till 11pm, then I will *carefully* drive home, praying to not encounter anyone who is driving under the influence, maybe hopping to their final location (seriously, this scares me)to ring in the NY. I may watch TV till 1230, then go to bed if tired. New Years's eve hasn't been any kind of big social occasion to me for over 20 years - back even when I would have been called 'younger' <shrug>
I don't think it's completely an age thing though.
Parties were never my thing....I can tolerate small groups of people I know well, for short gatherings, but large groups of strangers, with the noise, all that input......no, no....waaaay too stressful for me. Sometimes it's hard to convince others that that sort of social setting is *not* fun for everyone.What will you be doing Phillipa?
