  1. "Auld Lang Syne" (Scots: [ˈɔːl(d) lɑŋ ˈsəi̯n]) is a Scottish song. In the #EnglishspeakingWorld it is traditionally sung to bid farewell to the old year at the stroke of midnight on #Hogmanay, or #NewYearsEve. It is also often heard at funerals and graduations and as a farewell or ending to other occasions; for instance, many branches of the #Scouting movement use it to close #jamborees and other functions.

  2. "A Republic, if you can keep it." Q. A year from now, will they still have a republic? #uspoli #democracy #newyearseve #250years

  3. Making my annual straw #YuleBock, Yuli. Not really sure when I'm _supposed_ to make it but I feel like it's late this year. Also not sure if I should burn it on the #solsrice or on #NewYearsEve. Banana for scale. Goat not to correct anatomical scale.

  4. Calendar

    I don’t like what the calendar does to me at this time of year. We’re so close to the holidays that I just stop being able to deal with the days that still lay between me and the big dates.

    We are currently seven days away from xmas and 14 days away from New Years. That means 13 days until New Years Eve, but NYE is a work day for me so that’s pretty screwy in general.

    As an added bonus, we are 38 days away from the next vacation too. I sure hope it’s nice and warm in Florida in January. Last time we visited in January it was cold-ish in the morning and warm in the afternoons. I can live with that.

    With the possible exception of anything that might be added to any one of the many piles of xmas gifts in the next few days, everything that isn’t for my wife or for a Secret Santa has been wrapped. I’ll have it all done by the weekend, with oodles of time to spare before the big day arrives.

    I just want it to get here. I want Santa to arrive and unlawfully break into the house do his dirty work. I want the kids home with us, even if it is just for a short time, and I want to see the niece and nephews and the siblings and the in-laws on both sides of the family. I just want it to get here already. Is that too much to ask?

  5. Am Monatsletzten in einem Vierteljahr läuft schon "Dinner for One" im TV!
    Mal bis dahin die vielleicht unbekannteste Aufnahme des Sketchs, auch mit Freddie Frinton & May Warden, von schon 1961 & in Farbe ansehen?

  6. A late West Coast viewing tip: so I remembered #TheThinMan is a Christmas movie, but #AfterTheThinMan is a #NewYearsEve movie set in San Francisco. So watching that (via HBO Max and elsewhere) with cocktails is a FINE way to send out the year. Best of 2023 to you all.

  7. Dinner is served! Broccoli beef made with thinly sliced flank steak paired with the gyoza made earlier.

    Hope you all enjoyed a special meal with those you care most for.

    A Happy New Year's Eve to all. 🥂🍾
