FIRST NIGHT....OR LAST NIGHT????
Why do they call New Years first night in certain parts of the country? I never got that. It should be called last night. It is, however, the last night of the year. I guess it must be some sick marketing thing.
I am, as like many other, probably going to party on the "last night"
I personally have a set of standard do's and don't's for New Year. Feel free to follow them or hell have your own rules. What the fuck do I care.
First the DO'S
1. Have a decent meal before drinking alcohol. Nothing worse than someone who passes out at 10:00pm. Of course there has to be one to make fun of.
2. Stick with whatever alcohol you normally drink. This is not the night to see if you like Jack Daniels. Trust me!
3. Wear comfortable clothing, but it must flow with the evening. If you are going some place fancy here you are screwed. I mean comfortable like can you wake up the next morning in?
4. Have transportation lined up in advanced. No matter where you live in the whole world it is almost impossible to get a cab on New Years.
5. Have a good time. Enjoy it to the fullest extent. Why? Because 2007 might really suck for you.
6. Have someone to kiss after the ball drops. If not you will be one of the people who didn't and start drowning your sorrows in booze. (I swear that is important trust me)
7. If by chance you get lucky enough to have sloppy drunk sex ALWAYS use protection. (like for instance brown bag, blind fold, oh and condoms)
Now for the DON'T'S
1. Do not drink and drive. That is just dumb. Plus you will have more fun getting drunk than being stuck in a jail cell having to call your mommy.
2. Do not be caught at midnight next to some homely person that is looking for that New Years smooch. You will kiss them but then your friends will make fun of you.
3. Do not drunk dial people after midnight and scream into the phone "HAPPY NEW YEAR". I am pretty sure they know it is after midnight. And come on Grandma has to get up early.
4. Do not eat any Italian food prior to getting hammered all night. It may taste good going down but coming up is a whole different story.
5. Do not try to sing “Auld Lang Syne" you do not know the words NO one really knows the words.
6. Do not pass out where ever you want. Especially outside. Some parts of this country are cold that time of year. And you are not a bum so somehow make it home.
These are just a few of the guidelines that I follow. I am sure that you all have your own rules.
One rule that should be minded by all is
Have fun and be safe.
Have a Happy New Year all and do not drink and drive just drink!

You do realize that new days begin at 12 midnight, correct? Hence the "first night" begins at midnight on New Year's Eve...which is technically New Year's Day...even though it is still dark out.
Trust me on this one.
But after midnight it's techincally "a.m."... so it's really the first morning?

Re: comfortable clothing.
Velour robes are the rage in 2007.
