Spent a few hours with some friends at Giovanni's 'Mona Lisa' last night. The New Year was ushered in with a great fireworks display as well as the traditional Berliner (that's a jelly doughnut, to those of you who can't remember John F, Kennedy.)
The place was full, with a lot of dancing and camera flashing, lively conversation, and camaraderie. Simple, elegant way to say Happy New Year.
I am not, as anyone who knows me, a wildly enthusiastic marker of anniversaries. For me, every time I open my eyes after sleep, it's the start of something new, which makes everyday an anniversary, and for celebrations on such a grand scale, it wouldn't leave time to live a quiet life. If you believe that time is linear, that is, but that's a topic for the next entry.
