How You Can Tell If You're At A Bad New Year's Eve Party

Well, here it is, Dear Friends: the end of 2013  and the beginning of a new year; a fresh start, a brighter vision and a sigh of relief that we all made it through another 365 days of chaos despite all.  And we all look forward to making 2014 the best year we can.

But despite our high hopes and aspirations, we've got one final obstacle to overcome: the festivities of tomorrow night, also know as New Year's Eve, when it seems at times as if that is a point at which all scores are settled, all playing fields are leveled and all bad deeds finally and justly rewarded.  And just as this year seemed to have its own unique occasions and circumstances, it might be helpful to keep in mind that the party you attend to celebrate the new year may come with it's own set of pitfalls.
 
And so,  while you're busy spiking your egg nog, waiting for the UPS truck to arrive with that last shipment of undelivered Christmas gifts, or rushing to Target to try and salvage what's left of your credit, here are some tips you might want to keep in mind tomorrow night to let you know you've showed up at a real clunker:
