Should Ex-Acquantance Be Forgot
Amid a million NYers, nowhere to pee, they dropped the ball and she dropped me.
Nowhere to pee indeed. The Times Square thing is seriously overrated! So funny and sad.
Even more reason for a sixty something to stay home and watch on tv😊
I've heard people actually wear adult diapers for this very reason!
Ha and don’t even think about where the hot dog vendors go 😊
'My future self came by on New Year's Eve'
You messed me up, she said. Congrats, I said, because despite me, you made it.
The title makes this story. Perfection.
Awww, thank you Meg 💖💖💖
1969 Times Square. I”m watching decades turn. Strangers kissing. No one is kissing me
so sad and lovely.
On New Year’s Eve You Got Lost
——
Paid the cab driver, followed him to the club. You’d never be the cool girl.
Oh man. So good!
A Short-Lived Celebration
Noisemaker mid-lip, his cheeks turned an angry fuchsia. When the confetti dropped, so did he.
Darkly funny, so well done!
Leaving before Midnight, He Saves Somebody’s Life
He looked up at the ceiling’s silver ball. Who ordered another year anyway, he grumbled.
I love it! The Curmudgeon New Year!
I never get laid on New Years. Too busy drinking myself clever and good looking.
And then just one more drink makes you invisible.
Heavily pregnant on NYE. Like the coming year, the child inside me a restless unknown.
this is wonderful!!
Thank you!
Eight Months to the Real New Century
Drank several glasses of cigarette butts steeping in discarded Champagne fearing my future with him.
Says everything. A brilliant capture.
Annus Horribilis
I always sleep. Good morning, welcome New Year. Today I’m watching to ensure 2024 leaves!
I couldn't agree more!
“It’s the End of the World As We Know It”
New Year’s Eve 1999. Y2K scared us all. But, as usual, doomsday prophecies were wrong.
I remember it! Well captured.
New Year’s Eve Party, Age 16
My maroon satin hot pants, floppy velvet hat, sloe gin. Everything matched, even the barf.
We would have been friends, although I would probably have been drinking Kahlua! Laughing re: the barf. Just right.
Here's mine, entitled, "The Joke You Can Only Play Every Thousand Years":
Fearing Y2K Armageddon, she partied, anyway, until I threw the circuit breaker at midnight.
This is dark! (pun intended). Great title!
May’s Resolution
She aimed the cork for his crotch, his Baby New Years balls. Everyone froze.
Startling indeed!
lol. it feels something like something I've seen, but i'm probably just memory hallucinating. I've done some very cold new years.
Hope I'm in time. Wrote this at work.
Title: From 10:02 p.m. Dec 31 to approx. 3 a.m. Jan 1
sloshy, sniffly Simon sings,
"Should nose maintenance be forgot
In days of auld lang slime?"
Made me laugh! Delighted.
Based on a true story!
Mémoire (Dec ’06 CE): Havin’ to Fashion (‘n Blow Life into the) Snowmen to Have a Ball at a Gentleman’s Game, Cricket
Since all my other sentient mates had plans with their sentient (significant) halves.
Wonderful and so original.
Thank you, Meg!
