kybearfuzzLast night, I went to an annual NYE party thrown by one of my softball buddies. As always, the food is amazing (sweet/sour meatballs, 3 types of chili, dips, and desserts -- including candied orange peels, which sound odd but were delicious), the company is great (bears, including straight bears), and the festivities were fantastic. These guys do know how to throw a good bash that doesn't get out of control.
I debated it, but decided to pull out the kilt again this year. It always seems to be a draw for some people, including the ones who remember me wearing one last year. I wore underwear beneath it, even though some people say it's a skirt that way. There are kids at the party and there were a couple of hands up the kilt during the party. It's a rated PG party (mostly).
At the end of the evening, we all gathered outside to launch paper lanterns, something I've never done before. It was pretty cool turning them loose, but I have to admit, I wondered where they ended up. If there were any forest fires last night, I was no where nearby.
One of my buddies snapped the pic here. Despite the lack of light, it turned out to be my favorite photo of me from the evening. I got home late, slept in, and tried to work out (it wasn't in the cards).
Happy 2014! It has to be better than the crapfest of 2013!
