How true it is. That's why I never trust myself to make resolutions. I'm still doing all that stuff on the menu.

A New Year’s resolution is something that goes in one year and out the other.

From the 1930s to present: New Year's Eve in New York's Times Square
Every year hundreds of thousands of revelers descend upon the gleaming intersection of Seventh Avenue and Broadway in New York City to celebrate the turn of the new year.
Famously, Times Square plays host to musical performances, celebrity guests and 2,000 pounds of falling confetti. Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve began in 1974, and has hosted the ball drop party in Times Square ever since, but people were filling the square to ring in the new year for decades before Clark's televised party.

Rain ushered in 1938, but that didn’t deter thousands of people from filling Times Square, New York. This view looks south across West Forty-Fourth street with the old New York Times building in the background.

For many, many years my fondest wish was to celebrate New Years Eve in Times Square. Now my fondest wish is to be within reasonable reach of a bathroom or at least a convenient bush at all times. "Bathroom", "Times Square", and "New Years Eve" don't go together, I fear. Now, my fondest wish is to stay awake long enough to watch the ball drop....
