NYE/C

For you suckers who want to attempt to live it up on New Years in New York, events range from the low key loft party (they’re back!!) to the $100+ champagne toast. Me, I’ll be in front of the Twilight Zone marathon with a pot of peppermint Schnapp’s cocoa and a passel of drugs. I’ve listed NYE events alphabetically by venue, and asterixes mean I’d go if I were held at knife point, or if were a big fat sucker like you. And because I did all this work, I skimped out on the rest of the week. I’m tired, there was a strike, it’s Hannukah, blah blah blah.
