This came about a few years ago when I discovered that Big Trouble in Little China was leaving Netflix on January 1, and said "we're watching this tonight!", despite my kids being a bit young (by my wife's iffy judgement on these things). I think it might still be among my younger son's favorite movies.
So each year we ratchet up the age level a bit and watch something new (usually some favorite from my mostly unsupervised early teens). I haven't quite decided on tonight's selections, though.
My wife mostly doesn't drink, and is on antibiotics for a sinus infection anyway. But I bought a new bottle of barrel aged Peychaud's bitters, so I'll be making myself a cocktail or two. I might even still have some absinthe for a proper Sazerac.

I totally approve of the Sazerac cocktail. It's smooth as glass.
Salud!
à votre santé!
Huzzah!

Tonight will have a nice snuggle with my little girl when she goes to bed since this is the last night of almost a week together for Xmas break, really nice.
I doubt I’ll be awake as the new year gets rung in and that’s okay with me
Happy new year you FAT basterds

I love that my wife and I have a similar distaste for big NYE stuff. God, when I think back to how stressful NYE was with my ex-wife...

Went over to a friend house, played Combat Commander all day and was home by 8PM. In bed around 11. It was so cold out most of the rednecks in my area didn't have their usual outdoor bonfire or set off fireworks. Or if they did, the wind and dampening effect of the snow muffled them because I didn't hear any.
