Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and soon, it will be 2008. New Years is a big occasion in my family. Here in Philadelphia, we ring in the new year with the annual Mummers Parade.

My father and two of my brothers will be in that parade. This will be my father's 70th year going up Broad Street as a Mummer. Today's Philadelphia Inquirer had an article about him on the front page of the Local News section.

At the End of a String

So, to all of you forumites, Happy New Year!

For some reason we were talking about New Years at Thanksgiving. My cousin's wife revealed that she actually puts the kids to bed at 11 because they live in the midwest, but watch the ball drop. Neither kid had realized this. I told them they should refuse to go to bed until midnight. I like to think that I caused my cousin and his wife some grief.

Hmm. I celebrate New Years Eve on the first of April.

To me it makes more sense to have the new year start at winter solstice or some date in spring to better signify the new beginning. But centuries of tradition aren't going to change so easily now, so I go along with how it is.

For now.

I'm back at work today myself. Not that I'm really complaining. I would have like the whole week to prepare for classes starting next week but I need these hours of work. I'm kinda celebrated-out anyway.
