Home from NYC!

I got home from New Years in New York City (awesome time, avoided Times Square like whoa, and hung out in Central Park for fireworks at midnight. Sadly we ended up next to the Asshat Hipsters Who Were Loud and Annoying. We moved away from them finally (omg if I had to listen to one of them congratulate himself for having a passing resemblance to Eric Stoltz one more time I might have killed him. With a book. Because apparently, that is something I seem to be capable of).

Fireworks were spectacular, Central Park was wall to wall people (the night was fairly mild, so people were all over the city).

Bergdorf Goodman's holiday windows were far and above the absolute best in the city. Macy's kind of were a let down and looked amaturish, and Saks Fifth Avenue's out and out sucked.

I got the bus home and arrived Just in Time to have cake with my brother's family for G's TENTH birthday. She got her ears pierced today as part of her birthday. Lovely end to a wonderful holiday weekend. Back to work tomorrow. Ugh!

I think the funniest thing...

...I've seen lately is my brother wearing a "1st Visit!" Disney World button yesterday. I am sure it was to appease the hellions, I mean his children. I asked him what he thought of Disney World and he replied a little less than sincerely that it was "magical." K and the kids seem to have had a wonderful time.

B wants a Disney cover for her iPod Touch. G got a cover that was all gold rhinestones (surprised me, but hey, if she wanted sparkle and bling who an I to argue? She's still all sweatshirts and t-shirts and jeans).
