new decade time

so i'm back to trying to write a blog again. this time for real. new year's eve was good. i ran around like mad after work getting food and drinks and cleaning. amy and brendan showed up at our house around 7:30 and i was pretty close to finished. we had some moscow mules and then went to sassy ann's for a bit, but made it back home in time to have champagne in front of our tiny tv. i actually bought a nice bottle of champagne for once. not the $4 cook's. makes quite the difference. we stayed up late listening to music and talking. amy and brendan went to the pilot light new year's eve party and made it back around 2 in the morning. they were in a huge fight, but things seem somewhat resolved today.

i made a spinach, mushroom and sundried tomato strata for breakfast. as soon as they left i crawled back into bed and napped for about 3 hours. really nice. a & i watched purple noon - a french version of the talented mr. ripley while eating some chinese takeout. then we watched too many episodes of the television show worst week on our new roku player. this thing might be worse than actual television since it's commercial free and you can pick exactly what you want to watch.

i guess i need to work on some serious resolutions tomorrow. i have the day off alone. a has to work. i can't decide if i should try to make a big nice dinner with cocktails first, wine with dinner and a little boozing it up later or if i should just make us a nice steak and buy a some real coca cola and say we watch movies again. both sound equally nice, but one is smarter, cheaper and doesn't leave us with hangovers. but then again, should we have a last hurrah before putting project lesley2010 into action?
