New Year’s Eve Party in Times Square Will Be Virtual

 

 

 

 

 

So how important to you is New Years Eve—-I tend to try to be asleep before midnight if I have no place to go—-I like parties but being a nurse gives me a very healthy respect for keeping my distance.  Some close friends of mine caught the virus from thier son who went on the weekends to see his girlfriend—-one weekend he left and returned and was apparently doing fine and then he got a call a couple of days later from his girl to tell him she’d tested positive—they went for testing within about 24 – 48 more hours and yep all three  were positive.  Personnally mingling with a few or more heavily drinking  friends and loosing all ideas of what their 2021 life might be spent in ICU on a ventilator for a large portion of January just doesn’t sound fund to me.

 

 

 

But I understand the craziness that one develops setting arund watching what passes for entertainment—-please don’t get me started on reality TV’s unreal take on life…..not being able to talk to anyone for hours and when you do set down together you often find you have nothing much to say or are just tired of saying it—-which makes for sometimes strained relationships even with close friends  and family member that you reside with and the like

 

 

Going crazy is something we’ve all said at time about our selves  or our friends, family and the like but the statistics have shown that the chances of this has risen studily since the beginning of this crazy year—so I’d think if you’re still sane and your family isn’t much crazier than they always have been you are doing better than a large portion of the world’s occupants right now.

You might just spend the evening with your immediate family—-and binge a tv show that you all could enjoy and you could have snacks and sweets to eat or maybe a variety of flavoured pop corn or any manner of things and then you can all get into your jammies, stake out your favorate chair and/or couch and binge the shows or movies (i.e. Harry Potter).  You could have quizzes, themed drinks, snacks that go to a theme—-a contest for each of you to make a snack that goes to your binge theme—whatever seems like it will work for your group.  Instead of a movie series you could do movies by the same actor—or on a theme—car/race pictures—fairy tales or legends—there is no end to ideas and the decor could be appropriate—–these things can be simple and to the point or majorly involved and devoted to the theme and/or dream..  And getting everyone involved can take up several more days and  give the final party–binge whatever a satisifactory result.

 

 

If you are alone—a hook up by phone,  Zoom or the like with friends and/or family can help you through—even doing a virtual watching of Time Sqare event can relieve some of that lonliness and allow you to see if not actually do something on New Years Even.

 

 

Or include your pets with a few special treats with them and if possible a gathering on a couch to keep you company while you watch the events go by couldn’t hurt.
