Bringing in the Platitudinous New Year

Posted by kim on December 31, 2006

Normally, the idea of spending the night in a hotel on New Year’s Eve sounds like fun. Unless, of course, you are without electricity in your home due to an ice storm, so you packed up the kids and checked into the Holiday Inn. We managed to survive one day and night, but after 2 days, I was missing not only my internet connection, but heat. The gas fireplace only heats so much (but eating grilled steaks via candlelight is quite romantic). I hated forking over $85 for a hotel room, but it is a justifiable business expense since I am getting some work done. And I’m sure I would have spent at least that much celebrating the coming of the new year.

I am a little partied out actually with all the Christmas cheer, so tonight will be a good time to catch up on beauty sleep. Note to single chicks, a great place to meet men is at a Gentleman’s Club. Just don’t get a flat tire on the way there or pulled over on the way home. (So a friend told me…. ) Happy 2007!
