there's a change in the air...

Anyone got any amazing plans for New Year's Eve? I always go one of two ways: either I'm in a super low-key mood (i.e. be in pj's by 9 am and have a Die Hard marathon) or I'm up for some serious partying. And I never know which one I'm gonna feel like until the week of. Sometimes it's fun being a Gemini.

So this year I was all about the high-maintenance, way-too-many-people-in-my-comfort-zone kind of New Year's... so Benni and I are joining two of my closest friends for, are you ready for this much awesome?

A Flogging Molly concert. Tonight. To ring in the new year.

I KNOW, right?

We'll be partying at The Wiltern as they "Flog in the New Year" and we've got pit tickets so I'm bringing my A-game and my combat boots. And leaving my really expensive camera at home.

And did I mention the opening act for Flogging Molly is a Johnny Cash cover band? Excuse me while I die and go to music heaven.

So I hope that each and every one of you has a safe and wonderful New Year's celebration and I'll meet y'all back here when it's 2010.

Happy New Year!!

I don't fully understand the references here, though I know of Johnny Cash. Still Flogging Molly sounds like something you will enjoy, absolutely and now that I assume it's all over and you're safely asleep in bed, may I wish you a happy new year from the other side of the world where we are well into New Years day and all is quitet once more.

I hope you had an amazing time on NYE! You deserve to ring in the NY in a totally fabulous, exciting way. :)

I have been SO behind on keeping up but I am looking forward to catching up on your posts! I also am still going to respond to your email. Sorry about my tardiness! :)

I hope you're well and roll on 2010- it's going to be an amazing year! :)

Sounds like a great way to ring (at least the ears) in the New Year! Mine was well chosen and low key.

Bet those people on the floor thought you looked sweet and innocent...till they saw the combat boots.
Happy New Year!

I agree with the gemini part, i am one too and sometimes even surprise myself.
I'm hoping you had a good time flogging in the new year? I'm not sure what that is and am a little afraid to ask.
happy twenty ten Tracy!
