I'm supposed to go and hang out with friends who want to spend the New Year's eve trolling up and down the Embarcadero. OY!!! It's supposed to storm tonight, and I hate being out in the rain.

There's a party I could go and hang out at as well, but all these activities involve leaving home and I just want be warm and under the covers and have it be quiet, and not deal with noise, drunken people, crowds, rain and worst of all, trying to get back home in San Francisco on a rainy night after a big event.

I think I'd rather stay home, meditate on the past year, write new year's resolutions, drink champagne and eat ice cream.
