sleeping with all the right people

My first dra­wing of the New Year. I’m not sure what that sig­ni­fies. Heh.
I actually sta­yed in last night. Had two glas­ses of wine then went to bed just after mid­night. Ins­tead, Tho­mas and I have elec­ted to cele­brate in the pub this after­noon. Nothing majorly fes­tive, we’re both too busy.
My father tells me that, gro­wing up in the High­lands of Scot­land, they didn’t really cele­brate Christ­mas when he was a child. Kids got pre­sents in the mor­ning, but then every­body went back to work in the after­noon. New Year’s was the big holi­day for them.
I really like that idea.
