My good friend and date, Roxie, got tickets to a club for NYE celebration to old school hip hop jams for my Christmas pressie. Still jaded by a bad break up, I was there for the experience and so I people watched, listened and danced. I wanted to remember the night and thus I used the only recording tool I had in hand, my smarty phone.

Granted I didn't get to take as many pictures as I wanted. It's hard to be incognito with a white camera phone. Except for one incident during a ciggie break outside. First off, we were welcomed by one hot mess after another. Little Miss Happa apparently thought that shes a good judge of character that night by calling each and everyone who stepped out the door either a "positive" or a "negative" person. She thought I was positive. That's a plus! Roxie, in her eyes was "not so positive." Oooh, what a mistake that was. We just wished her a happy new year and hope that she didn't get date raped. It was the last time we saw her.

On the upside, a couple of yellow haired lovebirds were in an intense sluricane (conversation) and we happened to post ourselves right next to them. We witnessed a connection of some kind...a L-O-V-E connection. It had to be recorded, I caught a bit of a video/audio clip of when Baby Boy, I'll name him Chad, was trying to remember what sorority Baby Girl, Blaire (also named by yours truly) belongs to. Chad was "self-deprecating," to Blaire he was saying all the right words. It was great for me because I was a sober Sally with a camera. I took a pic of the lovely couple unnoticed even when the phone was all up in their business. (I'm working on uploadin' the vid.)

I'm glad that I was sober that evening or else I wouldn't been able to tell you about it. And to be honest, to most folks my night may have been a little mellow, I think it was an antithesis to what surrounded us. The annual new years day endless champagne brunch on the Titanic would have been a painful experience. Eating all you can eat buffet and endless champagne is a great way to start a new year.
