It's not even midnight here, yet...
Dec. 31st, 2007 11:51 pmAnd it sounds like someone idiot is firing a rifle off, in celebration of the new year -- as Brig would say: five rounds rapid.
Well to be fair, I'm not even sure I know what a rifle going off sounds like... but it's loud, and it sure doesn't sound like fireworks I've heard before.... :-/
I was originally planning on going to bed early, so I could be sound asleep at midnight, and not be woken up by the explosions... But the random, amateur popping noises started around ten.
At this rate, I might as well stay up until after the official show is over. More likely to have quiet, after that...
I got all of two hours sleep, in the wee hours of the morning, today.. I'll wish everyone a joyous new year after I'm rested...
Ah... there are the official whizzes and booms...
Out with the old, in with the new... and all that.
(yawn)
