Happy Chinese New Year btw. I don't care if you celebrate it or not lol
It's my year this year, so to all of you, I bestow blessings of wealth, prosperity, health, and happiness.

lmao @ chinapenese
See Brin's answer

Like I said, I don't care if others don't celebrate it. I don't expect anyone else to do so, nor do I expect anyone to care.
I am, and I do.
This year is kind of important to me for other reasons I won't go into here as well, so I am more vocal about it than usual.

kim just told me yesterday that i'm year of the Ox (85). i had no idea. and the description for people born on those years fits me exactly. i've never been partial to astrology or anything like that but that really surprised me
and it is indeed another reason to party. apparently it's the biggest reason to party, too. totally dwarfs christmas
