Daily Writing Practice Prompt for December 31, 2007 - In anticipation of the night

I would be nice if I could do something in anticipation of the night. I'd like to plan to go outside and look at the stars, however the light pollution is so bad here in Las Vegas that you can't see any stars.

If you're going to plan something in anticipation of the night, December 31 is a good day to do it. Tonight the whole country will commemorate the end of 2007 and celebrate the beginning of 2008. I'm looking forward to 2008 both as a writer and a woman. 2007 was not a good year for me so 2008 has to be better. I'm not making any resolutions right now though. I don't make my New Year's Resolutions until Naw-Ruz (March 21) because that's when I celebrate a New Year.

In anticipation of the night all the casinos in town are planning New Year's parties. So this should be a good night to stay home. I enjoy crowds as long as I'm having fun, but I don't consider the way New Year's is celebrated as fun. I prefer to stay home and watch the celebration on T.V. or get online and write. So this afternoon, I'm going to go out and get some things I need for dinner tomorrow. I also need to get a filter for the central air.

I think I'll start 2008 off by either going to sleep early or doing reviews on writing.com. I do know I don't want to get out tomorrow. Nothing is open on January 1 except some malls, grocery stores and the casinos here. I'm going to stay home and enjoy my house, work online or write.
