i’m getting ready to leave the house for a new year’s eve brunch with some community members. it will be a small, intimate gathering. pretty much exactly what i’m in the mood for tonight, but might not get. we’ll see — i’m still undecided. anyone have a small, quiet party going on they don’t mind me joining in on?

last year at this time i was clutching my phone waiting for the call that would tell me my grandmother was dead. it didn’t come until june 30th but the stroke was on christmas eve last year.

thankfully there are no recent or impending family deaths this year.
