Counting Down - minutes til 2005
A quiet New Year's Eve at home with D'Arcy and Kerry. Alex is off playing his first New Year's Eve gig, with a band called Mulch. Tasty risotto (chicken, sharp provolone) and salad for our dinner a deux. Good to be home tonight, to celebrate the end of an eventful year and the beginning of the next one. There's so much to be thankful for in the past year. Tonight we watched Napoleon Dynamite, which Kerry is fond of - I thought this quirky, mannered fable was fun, but D found it pointless and bailed out midway thru. Earlier, our neighbor Ahmen stopped by with homemade buns. Coming up shortly: the burning of the Christmas Tree, a jolly blaze to light a winter night in the middle of 12th Street and kindle bright wishes for 2005. Tomorrow the Mummers march up Broad St in what promises to be fine weather. Happy New Year, all!

Sounds really nice--how about some pictures of the Mummers and the fire?
D' must have a lot of skills....except that skill most often practiced by men. Yes, the skill of watching seemingly pointless films. I'm sure Napoleon has a point; it may be that I hesitate in accepting that point. It may ruin my life.
