MR

I have to do this today as I will be busy all week. Hope you don't mind. Happy Freaking, Stinking New Year, whooop, whoooo! Party into 2010 with a flourish!!

What I want to do for NYE: Something different like the "what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" type thing.

What I probably will do NYE: watch t.v. with my 2 "pussies": OR, go to local restaurants and get drunk; OR, chill at home with wine, my writing projects and homemade blk-eyed peas (a good luck dish to ring in the New Year)

Hey, for those who don't mind sharing online with relative strangers, what do you want to do for NYE and whatcha gonna be doin' for NYE on the blue line. MBPL PS - you ALL are fabulous, wonderful folks. Really.

I'm going to see if I can talk my wife into this

Happy New Year Lorrie! I get to work! Lucky me!

Shouldn't we start saying "HAPPY NEW DECADE" instead? Many people seem to be over-looking this significant detail

I'll be working; taking care of the sick people so have a drink on me and Happy Year! be safe

I will be hunting for some ebony pussy like I always do on NYE....drunk answer

Crash early....working the 1st...reality...

Happy Ney Year Lorrie & all at MR.

I will watch some tv and go to bed early....same as i do every year.

What you want to do NYE:

What I *want* is irrelevant. All I can go with is what IS.


What you probably WILL do NYE:

Delicious food, maybe wine, maybe movies... I don't normally do the going out thing for NYE. Too many idiots out there and I'm not about to be one of their victims. Hide from the cold and the crazies and create my own damn jolly good time.

work until 5p... then will be going to the Symphony... they are doing a tribute to Sinatra. ( free tickets) then home. Maybe a toast at midnight... or maybe asleep by then.

Neighborhood block party with a band.

New Year's Eve is one of only 2 days per year that I cut loose & go Goth Glam ----- I'm talking glitter, spiked hair, eyeliner, lipstick ----- the works!!! It's one of my fave holidays b/c it's like living out a fantasy. Plus, I get to unwind, relax & forget all about grown-up things like expenses, responsibility, deadlines & did I remember to pay the mortgage this month? It's all about having fun. Nothing kinky. Just music, drinking & dancing, but done in a way you wouldn't recognize me, a way I would never be seen at the grocery store.

That's not what the nightly news thinks...last night they were recapping the events of the decade!

Either going to see April Wine or neighbor's party...... or both.....not sure yet. All I know is that Crantini's will be involved.

Yikes, a decade runs 1-10...I don't know why they do this!!
Remember celebrating a new century in 2000 when it really started 01-01-01?!?!

On MNF they said this was the last game of the decade.

"Although any period of ten years is a decade, a convenient and frequently referenced interval is based on the tens digit of the calendar year, as in using 1960s to represent the decade from 1960 to 1969. Often, for brevity, only the tens part is mentioned (60s or sixties), although this may leave it uncertain which century is meant. These references are frequently used to encapsulate pop culture or other widespread phenomena that dominated such a decade, as in The Great Depression of the 1930s.

Some writers like to point out that since the common calendar starts from the year 1, its first full decade contained the years from 1 to 10, the second decade from 11 to 20, and so on. The interval from the year 2001 to 2010 could thus be called the 201st decade, using ordinal numbers. However, contrary to practices in referencing centuries, ordinal references to decades are quite uncommon."

This is true, but for people that count 1..2..3, it's confusing at times!!!

Jesus. I thought I was done listening to (well, ok... reading) the nitpicking about this after all the 2000 vs. 2001 millennium shit.

If there's one thing I can't stand (and no offense intended, my lovelies... but this happens to be a pet peeve of mine...) is when people just HAVE to jump in and go "technically, it isn't a new century until OH-ONE" or "technically it isn't a new decade until TWENTY ELEVEN".

The fact is, we know that. But we all group them differently when referring back to them anyway so what is the big deal if we group them that way when referring to the future? So, technically 1980 would still be part of the 70s, but no one says that...

"I was born in the 70s.

"Really? What year?"

"1980"

You'd call that person a retardicus maximus for saying a think like that, even though "technically" they'd be right. 98% of the planet refers to decades this way and most of us know it starts with the 1, but you always get the Smarty McFarty who has to pop up and go "um, technically..."

If it works in past referece, then it works in present and future reference too. Next Friday begins a new decade (maybe not *AHEM* "techically", but for general purposes, yes).

I've lost sleep over it for a decade now - ever since 2000.
