Apparently some people who go to Times Square for NYE wear diapers because there's a lack of facilities available.

Call me crazy, but that doesn't sound fun to me.

I will enjoy that time sleeping in my nice cozy bed in my nice cozy apartment. No crowds. No drunks. No diapers.

Went to a friends house to watch the Pats outside today. Quite the set up - tv, sound, canopy, fire, heat lamps, many crockpots.

But this. This? Is where it’s at for New Year’s Eve.

2023 had some challenges, personally. I expect 2024 to be the same, so I'm holding my breath that I'll be able to handle them.

It wasn't a big issue, but 2023 saw reading glasses become more the norm for me.

I held out for as long as I could, but I now use them when reading music. It's weird because they help me read the notes, but they hinder my peripheral vision.

One of my New Year's Resolutions is to sort that out.

So Happy New Year everyone!

Here's a short Miles Davis tune I read through with my glasses; though I had it mostly memorized when I played it in my backyard, so I didn't need them. ;)

Lovely axe. Feel free to keep posting as many of these guitar vids as you like - always enjoy listening to them! 'Really Like To Meet Her' on your YouTube is a great track.
