It’s midnight three time zones away, I mailed my unfinished book to KGT, and Spouse says my backrub doesn’t start until hulu is loaded, so can I call it quits early?

I remember when it was important to stay up until the year actually clocked by. I remember when it was exhilarating to start the year with a kiss and a promise to make things the best, ever.

Now it’s important to get to bed as early as possible, and to start the year with a modicum of patience and good will toward humanity.

So can I go? Please?
