Early on, I spent a good amount of time just kicking back on the couch talking to people.
I paid attention to the Bears/Packers game for a while, until it became a blowout. I couldn't bear to watch it after that.
Then someone put a party hat on me. At first, I liked wearing it.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhw-x-viRy4pa5XmMUL0i8Lzaf5DeSaKOA8KSyHCvUjQp6cz-SMPmIb3Ep4FpXhXlrSZVjgpQkF8GeVzoAbDOnU71zCTtvgr-kher78zbeyvevFH9gv7hgkf8BI9_kEyl3UyXMS2GXV8E/s320/couch5.jpg)

But then my Daddy said I looked like the Tin Man from the Wizard of Oz. I didn't appreciate that particular remark.

My parents seemed to be having a great time.
I really wanted to stay up and watch the ball drop with everybody else. But I'm still just a little baby, so I went to sleep in my portable crib. Next year I'm definitely staying up 'til midnight!!!To Return to the
