It's all about being seen.

For the last four years I've spent New Year's eve with the same guy. We've never actually planned to spend the evening together, and yet it somehow randomly always seems to happen. This year we actually planned on going to San Diego together from some parties down there. However after the second time last week that he went out drinking I began to suspect that I was going to have to play designated driver in San Diego. As fun as that sounds I decided to bail out on him instead.

Instead I talked my friend Lynn into coming to San Diego with me. When it came right down to it neither of us really wanted to go, but we were kind of feeling the need to make an attempt at doing something social. So we drove down there, and kind of milled around for a while, talked to a few people here and there, and then decided it wasn't our scene and came home. On our way out I told Lynn that I was glad that we came because it at least makes it seem like I'm being social. Lynn cracks me up when she responded "I saw cute boys looking at us, so we got something out of it."

We went back to her house and watched the fourth quarter of the Clemson vs. Auburn game in HD on her huge flat screen tv...the football hd experience is incredible.
