This is a slightly different post than our normal, pensive offerings or life events. This is simply too funny for me to not at least try to convey.
Our family was at my parents house ringing in the New Year. We were talking and watching the ball drop in Times Square (again). Somehow the conversation turned to the year 2000 and the Y2K scare. After a small discussion of what we expected, Eric said, "I just wanted the lights to flicker."
Just then, the lights flickered!!! I seriously laughed until I cried! What a great way to start the new year!
