 hard to say.  you never know.<\/p>\n<p>i\u2019m just glad it went so well tonight.<\/p>\n<p>it was also great to see so many friends in the audience.  i couldn\u2019t look at them a lot, because it\u2019d have been too distracting, but it was just nice to know they were there.<\/p>\n<p>i\u2019m happy.<\/p>\n<p>here\u2019s a funny thing about new year\u2019s eve &#8211; many many people get drunk and stay out late.  and so then, how do they start a FRESH, BRAND NEW YEAR?  <\/p>\n<p>hungover.<\/p>\n<p>isn\u2019t that a totally, totally shitty way to start the new year?<\/p>\n<p>wouldn\u2019t it be better to start it feeling all gung-ho and chipper and ready to do a bunch of stuff?  that\u2019s just the way i feel, at the moment, anyway &#8211; i feel like i\u2019m going to want to go running in the morning, and i\u2019m going to want to GET STUFF DONE.<\/p>\n<p>but on the other hand, i still have lots of fake hair glued onto my hair, and i feel it would be a little weird going running with it.  but maybe it would be warmer.  insulation from more hair.<\/p>\n<p>i just realized i\u2019m about to pass out.<\/p>\n<p>i hope your new year\u2019s eve was good.<\/p>\n<p>and more importantly, i hope your new year is FANTASTIC.<\/p>\n<p>ok then,<\/p>\n<p>2006 grace (going to be a fabulous year).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>it\u2019s two hours and five minutes into the new year, and already i have a good feeling about it. but on the other hand, gee whiz, it\u2019s 2:05 a.m.! i should be sleeping. but i even have a good feeling about that; i feel incredibly lucid (but the lucidity might be a figment of my [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_hide_featured_image":false,"_jetpack_featured_image_duplicate_dismissed":0,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-447","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p6JLYy-7d","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/447","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=447"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/447\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=447"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=447"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=447"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
