As a nation, we Canadians aren't party animals. According to the paper this morning, just 6% of us will be going out for the all-out New Years party this evening, and fully 40% of us aren't planning to party at all… not even at someone's house! Me, well… I'll be hosting our fabulous North America wide New Years Countdown call… with a glass of champagne in hand. 380 people have RSVP'd across 3 time zones.
Hope to see you there!

Heh, we just stayed at home. We had a nice rabbit dinner and drank a bit of egg nog. We had some holiday "poppers" that we set off outside–but frankly since becoming parents we don't get out very much at all.
