15 minutes left in 2006. One street over someone was shooting off really pretty fireworks about 5-10 minutes ago. I think his watch is slightly off. Shouldn't those have been saved for midnight? I'd think so.

Well the wine is open and ready to be poured to toast the new year. Now we're just awaiting the countdown.

We watched POTC2 tonight and some of the extra features. That was fun. Jeff picked up Gracie around 6. I can't believe how weird it feels to not have a dog here now. I know she was only here since Wednesday but we both got used to having a dog around. I think Ron's definitely getting interested in having a dog of our very own. He told my sister to keep an eye out, but he said he wanted to wait until spring. We'll see.
