Can you say bah-humbug for New Years Eve? Yes yes how could someone hate such a holiday? You get to go out and have the following day off without having to call in sick! Well let me tell you why it's not all fun and games.
- Resolutions. Now you HAVE to eat that
kale in your fridge for the next month till you give up in February
- People ask you what your resolution is
- People say
happy new years. Plural. It's a new year. Just one.
- Glitter is
everywhere.
Glitter on hats, dresses, shoes. Why? You and I both know that's
impossible to clean up
- Everyone
looks for a new year's kiss. Pressures on. People looking left and right just to
swap some spit because they are supposed to.
- Traffic. Where is everyone going? And
the thought "I hope you're taking a uber" has gone through your
head
- Getting a cab is impossible.
- You have to
stay up late.
No netflix and sleep for you tonight.
- People bang
pots and pans all night. We're not at a soccer game. Enough.
- "New
year new me"
if you say this….go home.
- You know the
gym will be crowded tomorrow. Not that you really went anyway
- You know
you'll be hung-over tomorrow. Get the bacon egg and cheese ready.
- You feel
obligated to watch a ball fall from the sky. Yes you’re enjoying the news right now.
- You think back on the last year. Embarrassment, regret, sadness, some joy and minimal hope.
