I am safe.

Last night was fabulous! Faaaaaaaabulous! Everyone got together, got dressed up for a "black-tie" affair, enjoyed some amazing karaoke at Julie's Supper Club, and a very interesting crowd at our friend Cynthia's "black-tie" (right, notice the quotes??) affair, and thrilled to be happy, surrounded by wonderful people, comforted, loved, and kept warm by everyone and everything around me. Yes, even as I was driving home at 4am. Yes, even as I was waking up at 7am... 9am... 10am... 11am... 2pm... I really couldn't have asked for a better way to ring in the new year. I am absolutely surrounded by love.

Can you tell I'm still sitting here, grinning from ear to ear like an idiot? I've waited for a very long time for this year to come. It will be the best year of my life and I'm totally ready to welcome it!
