2004 . . . so what . . . New Years was a bit uneventful this year, but I'm completely okay with that . . . I just wasn't in the mood or the mind set to go out livin' it up . . . Liz and I enjoyed dinner at Sangria in Royal Oak . . . this was the 3rd consecutive year . . . making it an official tradition . . . usually it is Liz, Jax, and myself but Jax unfortunately was unable to attend this year . . . the food was divine per usual . . . if you have never been, please make an effort . . . it is worth it . . . the various warm and cold tapas are wonderful . . . my favorite has to be the spinach stuffed portabella in red sauce . . . so simple, but so good . . . I didn't have lunch today . . . can you tell? . . . after 2 hours of stimulating food and conversation, they kicked us out . . . literally . . . they have table time limit of 1 1/2 hours on New Years Eve . . . later we made our appearance at Emily's party in Detroit . . . joining the Pop Culture DVD Trivial Pursuit game in progress . . . very difficult . . . and the DVD element is a bit of a novelty . . . I like the old skool rules better . . . we rang in the New Year with Dick Clark, Champagne, and ?12 grapes? . . . I'm still fuzzy on the official rules for the 12 grapes for 12 months tradition . . . but I have a feeling that my Nov & Dec '04 will be disasterous . . . Liz and I called it an early night . . . back home at 1am . . . lights out, good year, & good night . . .
