Alone again, naturally

Just when I think I've gotten used to being alone, I realize that I really haven't.

Tomorrow is New Year's Eve and it will just be G and I, hanging around the house, doing nothing.

E and N are in Michigan with N's family.  N's sister and her husband (A and B) just had a baby boy early this morning.  I'm glad that I is here safely and surrounded by grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins that love him and have been eagerly awaiting his arrival. 

K is in New York City.  She flew out early this morning and spent the day exploring the city until she could meet up with the friend/co-worker who she's staying with for the weekend.  I don't think K is going to hang out in Times Square for NYE, but she's a spur of the moment kind of girl, so who knows. 

M is staying overnight with friends tonight and then tomorrow everyone is going to Wisconsin for the weekend.  One of her friends' family has a cabin near Twin Lakes and the whole family and extended crew are heading north to celebrate the new year.

G went to bed at 8:15 this evening.  Usually he manages to stay up until 9:00, but he did get up pretty early to take K to the airport, so I'm sure he's tired.  It's not like he would want to hang out with me and watch the "We had a 6-6 record so we deserve to play in the post-season Bowl" on television.  Actually I'm watching the Insight Bowl and Iowa is losing to Oklahoma.  Even though I don't like Iowa, I was taught that when it comes to bowl games and March Madness, you root for the Big Ten, so I'm hoping Iowa can pull out the win but it's not looking good. 

So, I'm alone and I guess I really do need to get used to it because the situation's not going to change.  : /
