For quite a number of years now, I have sent out an e-mail to MOST of my contacts.

It goes as follows:

--------------------
I am sending out my annual survey wondering how everyone is, and if they are OLD, or YOUNG.

By MY definition, for New Year's Eve, you will be OLD if you are NOT awake at midnight. (sorry if you have to work, etc.)

You can consider yourself YOUNG if you will be AWAKE at midnight.

One exception: you can't nap until 11:45, then wake up and be considered young!!!

-------------------------

So TUGgers, are you planning to be YOUNG, or OLD (I realize you may not reply until Jan 1)

Happy New Year,
Pat

p.s. I am uncertain, but think I will be 'old'----we'll see
 
I will probably be young. We don't go out and party, but we are usually awake at midnight most nights anyway.
 
We will be young in an old sort of way.

The only way I will be awake at midnight is if I wake up at 11:59 and have to go to the bathroom. So, I guess I’m old.
 
I’ll probably be up but not much longer than midnight. :)
 
I’m awake when it’s Midnight in London where time starts.

Cheers

I suppose youth is when you can't wait to stay up late on New Year's Eve. Old age however, is when you're forced to.
 
ZZZZZZ .... I'm an early riser. I guess I could take a nap. :ponder:
 
I will be old and I will enjoying every second of sleep at 11:58 PM..
But. Just in case, I am young and not sleep at 11:59 1/2 PM on December 31, 2019.
Happy New Year and welcome to a new Decade 2020.
 
I would like to be awake as I have watched the ball drop at Times Square since I was old enough to stay up until midnight. Tomorrow, rather later this evening, we need to be at YYZ at 3AM for our flight to Belize so by midnight I'll probably be asleep. There is also a time difference to account for. I am hoping my earplugs can block the noise of all the parties and fireworks around our apartment. Maybe I can see the ball drop on a replay.
Happy New Year everybody!

We are going to be out with the batch of 'usual suspects', and I suspect the requisite flute of something bubbly will be quaffed at midnight local time. I'll be there in body, if not in spirit(s).

Pedro47 a case can be made that the new decade starts 1/1/2021, as the current 'common era' began on year '1'. there was no year'zero', so all decades would begin with a '1'. I'm not taking any chances though. If anybody asks, at midnight 1/1/2020, I'll enter my 8th decade of living. Hoping for 9, but at some stage it's out of your control. Who knows?
 
We will be at Bahama Breeze (Restaurant) w- another couple.
We will dine on lobster quesadilla and assorted rum drinks.
Just before midnight, they hand out a small glasses of champagne.

I think that makes us middle-aged.
 
Still getting over the crud so I will most likely be old.

Passepartout, Congratulations I hope you can see decade#9 and enjoy it to it’s fullness. Golfing, swimming, family vacations, time sharing what ever that make you Happy and give you enjoyment.
 
I'm usually up at midnight anyway, but many my age are like this couple.

We'll be up at midnight despite being old in other ways! Will have to be sure to pick up a bottle of bubbly today to toast the New Year.
 
Young but we don’t participate in any activities. I just usually watch a movie. However I do go to bed shortly after midnight cause it’s FOOTBALL!!!!!
 
Awake until everyone goes home. Buzz on by 11 pm. Smiles all night. Pizza at 12:05. Looks like we will have decent winter weather tonight so the deck fire and heaters should be fine.

I guess I could have just said awake, lol.
