LAMEST NEW YEAR'S EVER

In reverse order, the three lamest New Year's Eves ever:

3. 1996-1997, Downtown Los Angeles. Having rubber bullets shot at me by LAPD riot unit.

2. 2005-2006, Medford, Oregon. Sitting in a screening of Pride and Prejudice. Message waiting for me on the phone when I get out. It's a violent and sexually explicit message left by some drunk guy I didn't know.

1. 2010-2011, Phoenix, AZ. Me, in darkened living room writing this right now.

(FYI: Best ever was 1999-2000, Las Vegas. First ever with Julie.)
