I have a longstanding annual rendezvous with my favorite flick in the midnight hour, but since my friends kindly timed their party with the actual NYC ball drop, I was able to be social this year as well.

I’ll spare you the documentation from the home front (two fat steaks in a white-hot cast iron skillet–sorry, Caryn) but I will share this link to an amazing shot of Times Square by Jook Leung from Hans Nyborg’s panorama site (via Jeff Jarvis’s BuzzMachine).
