So yeah, it's the 31st of December. If not now, then soon. There is no escape. It is inevitable.

A magic moment no matter how you slice it.

So what are you doing on this sacred day? How are you spending these last 24 hours of the horrendous year that has been 2021?

I’m going to Kroger to get groceries, which is something I do every other Friday. I will then begin building my new LEGO Apollo 11 Lunar Lander. I do let the kids stay up later that night and we watch the countdown on Animal Crossing at 10pm for my youngest to still see it before bed. My oldest gets to stay up until midnight which we will play some multiplayer game, which is her choice. Sometimes we still play Animal Crossing Amiibo Festival, Monopoly, or Wheel of Fortune.
I really wish 1 vs 100 was available so she could experience that!
I miss it:

Chilling in doors watching a film.
Have a Chinese or Indian takeaway

In the morning walking to a big superstore.
In the afternoon Gonna go to the barbers get a Turkish shave. One of the best things you can do at the barber sun the U.K. hot towel shave. Relaxing as hell.
Maybe walk along the seafront. Take in the nice sea air.

Also If you see a barbers that offers a Turkish shave do it.

I hate NYE and I hated it for years while I was still clubbing drinking and doing dope.
So today I'm working as normal, then having a girl over that shares the sentiment. Sex, TV, Sushi and Piccolo.

I'm in China, so this is the "Shitty" new year, charcuterie board, wine bottle of Champaign then go up on the roof to see if there's at least 2 shitty fireworks getting set off on the town. Then do it all again 1 month later for the Chinese New year, but at least there will be a lot of fireworks and a good mood.

Having a wank.

Nothing special, but at midnight going to ring a bell at some temple. I don't believe in it, but it's something to do.

Basically Christmas 2: Electric Boogaloo. Spend time with the family (~10 people). Probably play some poker or Monopoly (or both). Get drunk on wine. Eat like a pig. All the good stuff.

Today (the 30th) I went hunting with my dad. Tomorrow (the 31st) I’m finally going to finish assembling my table saw I’ve been putting off for so long. At least I hope :)
 
It's my birthday, which can be both good and bad, only bad because I have to work (luckily only a half day) and going out is just bananas because of course everyone else wants to do the same. I used to go to friend NYE parties, but, the last few years, it hasn't happened, both due to covid restrictions, and, people had kids, so, they prefer to stay home. I am a homebody myself, so, I really don't mind it. Still December 30th here, but, after work tomorrow, I am already burying myself in margarita's as soon as I get home, I am absolutely tits up excited, I just really want a lifetime supply of margaritas.

“Aww, it’s so...average,” she said to him in a cold brick of passion
Taking the day off to get absolutely hammered with friends while we play some Gloomhaven at my house.

Nothing out of the ordinary. The magic of New Year’s Eve has long left me and my family, specially these last few years with Covid and all.

Life has been very… let us say, devoid of substance this last couple of years. Hopefully 2022 marks a new beginning.

Its been a shit year so I thought i'd get drunk and watch new season of the white man bad series that is the Star Trek the Diversity She/her they/them Ze/xer ding/dong apache/chopper show. Keep all the shit things in this year and start the new year with a clean slate.

That said happy new year to everyone.
 
I prepared to evacuate my home because of a wildfire in December. I spent almost the entire day stressed out, and my home bordered the evac, fire got within 2 miles of my home. Much of my community has been destroyed.

For New Year's Eve I'm going to unload my vehicle, then take my car to get repaired.

Given that a few of my friends are on Covid lockdown, and the house party I was supposed to go to got canceled, I may end up doing absolutely nothing. The other option is a private party at a bar near my place, but I'm not sure I'm feeling that at the moment. I tend to prefer a more mellow New Year's Eve gathering in my old age, but we shall see...

I was invited to my best friend house, we have the weed, the doggos and the food, i think we are set for a nice evening.
What’s a doggo? Weed is always good, but I haven’t been able to smoke it since 07 because of my anti-depressants fucking with my high. Oh how I miss that blissful feeling.

I will be ordering in Chinese and spending the night watching Shang Chi with a bottle of something. I’m too old/fat/lazy/unsociable (delete as appropriate) to be doing anything major.
