Family on Christmas - Close friends on NYE. Probably staying 'home' and cooking, drinking, etc. vs going out. In the last few years it's just gotten... somehow consistently worse everywhere you go. It's obscenely expensive, packed, and frankly just not as much fun as it used to be. 

You?

Yeah pretty much taking it easy. I have some time off work and am going to just chill and play poker. Going to Christmas Eve mass with my dad tomorrow, then cooking Christmas dinner (just some filet mignon steaks). No plans for NYE. I kind of like staying in these days.
