New Year's Eve

New Year's Eve can only be summed up as uproarious. Leading up to the fun, however, was not. Instead of doing some sight seeing we ran errands, which took way to long due to complications with KT's gift card, then we headed to one of her and Blake's friends for dinner and game night before heading out to downtown to catch the fireworks at midnight.
Dinner was all vegetarian, not because anyone is a vegetarian, but because they do not like to cook meat...it was surprisingly delicious. We played a memory pattern card game called Set, that I picked up decently well, then we headed to downtown, where the real fun begins...
I had unfortunately forgotten my large coat with the subway pass in it, but luckily the trains were free for the holiday. Unfortunately, it was 9 degrees out and I was only in a USC sweatshirt.  We walked around a park and saw some cool ice sculptures while killing time while waiting for the fireworks. 10:30 rolls around and we hear an announcement that the fireworks were canceled!! So yeah, freezing in downtown Boston for no real reason.
We trekked back to the friends' house and watched the ball drop at Times Square. Good times were had when we were not freezing outside, haha
Happy New Year everyone!

My college roommate Matt was a fiend at Set. If 4 people played it was usually a competition for everyone else combined to beat him.

Bonus: The captcha word is pusubtm. I find that hilarious.
