so this is the new year/and i don’t feel any different
“The New Year,” Death Cab for Cutie

Happy 2005. I wish I could I awoke with a feeling of a new beginning, but I merely awoke from a restful seven hours’ sleep. We celebrated New Year’s Eve with Brian at his mortuary. Most of us took cat naps after dinner but before midnight. It was chilly last night, but me managed to grill steaks. Delicious! There was plenty of booze, too.

I slept from about 9 to 11 last night, but was awake to see Conan O’Brien ring in 2005 at midnight in the Central Time Zone. Pretty creative, I must say.

As always, here are two photos from last night.
