Farewell Oh-Five

I'm not a big partyer, even with due cause, so my principle goal when it comes to year end celebrations is for the kids to have fun. And I think I was successful in the provision of fun. We went to a friends' and, along with several other kids, my kids got to enjoy a mix of dancing, balloon fighting, karaoke, keepsake video testimonials, games, and hourly toasts as each timezone released its grasp on 2005.

It was something like 2am when we finally got settled down, and then I was rather zonked. Having helped an uncle move during the first half of the day I was more tired at 2am than typical, so we crashed where we were. I think everyone slept until about ten before enjoying breakfast by our kind hosts. Were it up to the kids, who were still having fun, we'd have stayed a whole other night.
