Wanting to end the night early, my guests and I did our countdown and yelled "Happy New Year" at around 9pm. We watched a "fake countdown" video that we found on YouTube and it was perfect. Do you remember banging on pots and pans on New Year's Eve when you were a kid?
It was great seeing so many Ocean County residents responding to my Facebook post about the show "This Is Us." Clearly most of you are fans of the TV series, like I am.
So today I want to ask about another topic near and dear to my heart: birthdays...
With my kind of obsessive need to make a big deal out of my birthday each January, I feel badly for Leap Day babies. I can't imagine being short-changed in the birthday department. A celebration only once every 4 years? I couldn't stand it...
