Ed and I must be getting old. We couldn’t even be bothered to walk half a block to Cosmo’s to ring in the New Year. It seemed too cold out. Ed almost couldn’t be bothered to walk outside and listen to the gunfire firecrackers going off. He missed most of the fireworks display going off in the alley behind our across-the-street neighbors (I don’t think this was a legal fireworks display, but our front porch was the best seat in the house).

Anyway, we had to get up early this morning because we had tickets to the Cotton Bowl, which started at 10:40am. We enjoyed the game, despite not caring about either team playing (Arkansas and Missouri). We were glad our seats were on the sunny side; it was in the 30s when the game started. Still, I managed to get a mild sunburn on my face. Dallas weather continues to confuse me. It’s supposed to be 75 on Saturday.

Happy 2008 everybody!
