Depends whether I am working or not. If it has been a workday, then often the half hour or hour that I set aside at the end of the day for reading before I go to sleep.
If I am not working, and don’t need to get up do things immediately, then the time just after waking and before I get breakfast. Maybe read a little, plan the day and check the Web.
I fucking love celebrating that day alone. It never made any sense to me celebrating a calendar change and all the build up to nothing actually happening. The first year I spent it alone I had been the sober driver and took a friend home early and happened to still be on the old dirt road heading back to the party when midnight hit and it was so peaceful. So up until I had a family of my own I spent every new years alone on a hike or working on a project alone or with a close friend, woke up feeling better.
I’m not a fast food worker, but made the mistake of ordering the biggest order size of nuggets at a McDonald’s in college. I waited 30 mins to get 150 nuggets. I didn’t think I was going to get so many. I had enough to share with an entire class of mine on campus.
Did it more than once and it wasn’t bad at all. Get some food you like, some nice movies/games, a stroll around the city to see people going crazy at midnight maybe, maybe a drink at the bar and then to sleep as soon as you’re tired without having to stay awake to make other people happy… I enjoyed it when it happened…
