Happy Year of the Rooster!

I've always felt like the Chinese New Year was really the start of my year, a time when I'm finally in the swing of things and the year really begins. January is mostly spent still winding down the old year and preparing for the new.

So, am teaming up with a friend to throw a New Year's party. Wish I could acquire, ahem, firecrackers, but I think my building association would be upset with stuff exploding near the building.

For those of you wondering what the year will unfold, you can check your Chinese horoscope here.
