Anyone else staying in tonight to ring in the New Year? We usually have people over, but my husband wasn't up to it this year. I'll watch some football and maybe stay up to see the ball drop, but otherwise it will be a quiet night.

What are your "stay at home" plans?

    My husband and I are in for the night, too. He is on call for work so no drinking for him. We will probably play some games and he in bed before midnight.

    You are not alone, we are home for the evening too. Nothing special planned, probably movie night and a bit of overindulging in fattening foods and spirits :) Happy New Year!!!

    Staying in bed with lights off diving into progressive power metal albums that I missed throughout the year on Spotify and reading books/comics/internet on my nook. Trying not to think about friends and their loved ones....seems quite hard to do. There's pretty much nothing else to do. Absolutely nothing of interest on tv (I could care less about the ball drop these days) and no netflix rentals to watch.

    Our joke is that any movie you like to watch over and over is your "Godfather". Of course this is because my husband could watch "The Godfather" every single day and not get bored with it. Apparently "Bridget Jones Diary" and "Fried Green Tomatoes" are both my Godfather. lol

    Staying in, as usual. Putting my 2 year old (who has strep and the flu) to bed very soon and letting my 5 year old stay up til midnight if she quits acting like a crazy girl! Just spending family time, watching a movie, maybe playing uno, eating TCBY frozen yogurt. LOL

    I'll be at work until 10:30 and then home to ring in 2013. The best part about NYE is watching The Honeymooner's marathon!!! :)
  • World Juniors Hockey Canada Vs. Russia... doesn't get any better than that!

    oh and the BF's homemade wings... nom nom nom

    Staying home here as well. Season Five of The Wire on the tube and a couple of beers for him and Frescas for me. We'll probably stay awake long enough for a Happy New Year kiss...

    Staying in here I am not a party animal anymore and hubby was up to late last night watching baby pigs born, so he has crashed already. I will play on my computer for a bit, watch the ball drop and go to bed. Happy New Years!!
  • I'm staying home, too. Drinking wine and planning on watching Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin do their yearly countdown. I love watching her embarrass the hell out of him :heart:

    Cover charges are everywhere - why would I want to pay to enter a bar that I always get in for free? Plus, I can get drunk with no shame without having to figure out how to get home. It's a win-win!
