New Years Eve came and went. I watched the ball drop at work, waiting for relief. I didn't get out until 11:20pm, so I was lucky I made it anywhere to celebrate. I realized last night as we were driving home from Amy's that we celebrated the new year early, one second early. We didn't observe the leap second. I think we'll be alright becuase everything was pretty much the same if the extra second wasn't there.
Part of me didn't want 2006 to come. It was inevitable, but part of me wanted to be like little Pete and try to go backwards in time by eating copious amounts of Riboflavin and riding across time zones on my bike. I just wanted it to last a little longer, more than one second. I just know what 2006 brings, and I just don't feel like having to realize it right now.
