...and a Happy New Year

[lady_schrapnell]

It's 7 minutes to midnight, and I'm indulging in one of my less exciting annual traditions: sitting home in my p.j.s, minding a dog who's very unhappy because of the fireworks. They've been kind of sporadic up till now, but we were caught at about 5:30 when I took her out for a walk, so no fear that They'll have thought better of letting off tons of them this year....

What a year! Haven't even written about Christmas, or thought about the Books Awards yet, (ahh - it's the New Year here in Dublin and I was right about the dog unhappiness.)
Have to go drag her onto the sofa...
