After having such a fun Christmas break, we decided to continue partying into 2009. For New Years Eve Buddy and Maurine drove to Atlanta to hang out with Sarah and I. We had a great dinner at a Chinese restaurant and then headed back to the house to bundle up for a night on the town. Buddy came down with a chest cold so he stayed at the house and watched football while Sarah, Maurine and I put on our long underwear, jackets, scarfs, hats, and gloves and headed downtown.
For those of you not from Atlanta, here Georgia, instead of dropping a large nice lit up ball, we drop a big orange plastic peach. Once we got downtown and pushed through at least 20,000 people to see the stage, we noticed a lot of commotion up ahead. The lady next to us started yelling "tighten up everyone, we's about to have us a fight." Sure enough, right in front of us 3 guys started punching each other as hard as they could. I was just thinking, "Glory, we dragged Maurine out past her 9:00 bedtime only to be caught up in gang activity. 
We finally found nice spot to stand in and waited for about 45 minutes. The time flew by since we had people all around to entertain us by...well being themselves. Once 12:00 came Atlanta put on a great fireworks show and had a grand old time. After we left Five Points we headed back home on MARTA to get some rest from such a crazy evening.
