Does one’s activities on New Year’s Day set the tone for the rest of the year?
First, I woke up at 7:30 am. Practically the middle of the day!
Then, I ate a seriously large amount of food at the Hotel Marlowe buffet brunch, including three (3) buttermilk biscuits and a muffin.
Then, after several attempts to work on a short story, the sunny and pleasant 55 degree day lured me outdoors. And I headed straight to Filene’s Basement. Feckless consumer spending!
Then, I went to the Sports Depot with my roommate and her co-workers, who spun tales of their pyschiatric ward patients as we drank beer and ate pub food. We then went to Silhouette’s in Allston, the Dive Bar of the Year according the Boston Phoenix, and played darts and touchscreen video games.
Then, because my day wasn’t ridiculously hedonistic enough, I watched Cops. And loved it.
Perhaps I should have made a resolution or two after all.
