I believe I have successfully talked my husband out of working NYE this year. He’s a musician, and he always works NYE. Always. It’s never been a problem before, but this year, dammit, I want to spend the evening with my husband! I told him that if he worked every NYE after this one for the rest of his life, that was fine, but PLEASE just spend this one with me?
Now that he’s married, he doesn’t seem to enjoy working NYE as much as he used to, even though it’s the biggest paying gig of the year.
ANYWAY, my entire family will be getting together this year. It’ll be fun. I have a fun family. We’ll also be celebrating the life of my grandmother, who just passed away a few weeks ago. Her birthday was December 31. It will be a really nice time.
