This morning I saw an old man and a drunken baby skulking around out by my front shrubs.

I told them to get the hell off my lawn, and they wandered off down the block.

I fear they'll be back.

How do you tell if a baby is drunk :p?
 
2015 arrived 6.5 hours ago for me. I told you, I'd be in bed when it arrived here :)
 
So was I! New Year is such a cliché!

I haven't celebrated New Years for years. When I was younger we used to go to parties and stuff, but these days I'd rather be tucked up in bed.

I said this in another thread but I think it fits. My family never really celebrated New Years when I was growing up, I guess I carried that tradition through adulthood. Sure I've stayed up for the new year, and been to parties but at this stage, I'm more content with chilaxing at home.

I was probably more resistant to going out when my girls were babies, because regardless of what time you put them to bed, they would get up at 6:00am or earlier. It does not pay to stay out until 1:00 or 2:00am, and then get up 4 hours later - kind of ruins the day.

Yes, I know that feeling, and can sympathise, to a certain extent.

Actually, I made myself drag myself out of bed and get up properly to watch the annual 'New Year's Concert' from Vienna; I would have been annoyed with myself if I hadn't, but the temptation to lie and linger under comfortable duvets was very strong.
 
Reality checks

; When I was younger we used to go to parties and stuff …

I decided to skip the parties when 2013 became 2014. At first I thought I was making myself miss out, but happily that thought was quickly followed by a reality check: there it was, Jools' Annual Hootenanny – and I couldn't count the number of times I had stayed in and enjoyed it without a second thought :)

That said, a nearby party the year before was bloody fantastic. Apart from someone nicking my coat with money in it!
