The trip to Houston for Christmas week went fairly well. jmaynard summed it up here.

Didn't do anything special for New Year's Eve. Nothing unusual there. If anything, I'd stay up till the year changed and then get some sleep. Spending the later evening at home keeps the probability of dealing with those who drink to excess down.

New Year's Day wasn't bad. I finally installed the DVD-reader/CD-RW drive that Jay gave me for Christmas. Now I can read CDs again. And DVDs. And even make use of the CD-RW discs my folks gave me last Christmas. I think I'll be doing some sorting and backing up this weekend.

Also, I took a small (60mm aperture) telescope out last night and looked at Saturn for a few minutes. Such a small 'scope only just barely shows the rings, but they could be seen.
