For the last few weeks, I'd been debating whether or not I want to stay in the city for New Year's Eve or go home and spend a quiet night with my parents.

But with the advent of my feelings for a now 38 year old man, I've decided to stay in the city. The movies have told us that we're supposed to have a mindblowing time on New Year's Eve, which of course sets it up for failure in real life. My roommates, the older man and I will go to a restaurant for food and music and drinks. It's called Epistrophy, located on Mott Street. On New Year's Eve, one is supposed to get wasted and then have a midnight kiss. This will be my first opportunity ever to have that midnight kiss, and I'm looking forward to it.

I don't know where we're headed when we're finished at Epistrophy. There are so many options in the city. But every bar, subway car and restaurant will be full of drunk New Yorkers and tourists. I picture everyone stumbling on the sidewalks, consuming alcohol in public, not bothering to hide a cocktail glass in a paper bag.

What are your plans on New Year's Eve?
