2006 and all that
Well, here we are. Another year, eh?
2005 ended as 2004 did: at a party at Sophie's house. The theme was 80s. Well, more correctly my theme was 80s because I seemed to be the only one who'd taken the stuff about a themed party to heart (either that or I'd missed a couple of memos). I think that I looked so heartbroken when I was told that most people wouldn't be bothering with the theme that Sophie and Charlotte dressed up 80s-stylie in sympathy. Jane was up for it all along, of course, and regressed to her 80s goth persona.
The reason I was upset was that I'd actually gone to the effort of creating my t-shirt from scratch...
An item that will shortly be available on Ebay. :-)
It wasn't, I must admit, the best night out of the year from my point of view. It was mine and Jane's third night out in a row (each one of which had involved a lot of driving) and it had all caught up with us somewhat. Still, it was great to see everyone again, and bring the year to a close in exactly the same place it had started for me.
Which made it easier to spot what had changed over the year. For the better, which is the main thing.

I'm running off now to figure out what you're saying with the color-coding of those things. Apparently there have been some strange urban myths over the years regarding that subject. ;-)
I thought I was the only one.....
