Usually on New Year's Eve I am heavy into thinking of the year just passed and making some resolutions for the upcoming year. Not so much this year - I think I have been so introspective for the last month that I am avoiding that. I want to just relax and enjoy. I am leaving in a few minutes to brave a snow storm and go meet G - the new guy. I am meeting three of his closest friends tonight - who all happen to be female. They insisted that he invite me to their New Years. This will consist of ordering in Chinese and going to see the movie 'Memoirs of a Geisha'. I was just thinking that I should perhaps be nervous. While it will give me a good chance to see him among his friends, it will also give him a chance to ask them what they all thought of me. I'm not nervous though. I do know for sure that making new friends is one of my best skills so feel pretty sure that I'll be fine with them. I'm taking lots of wine - not for me since I have to drive, but for them!
All the best for 2006, hope your outing with the new guy and his friends goes well!

Good goin'! I think attitude has a lot to do with how things turn out, and you've been so great at gettin' over and movin' on by intellect and strength of will alone. All the best to you.
