The New Years Resolution

Well it turned out there was just too much to be done in preparation to get out for New Years Eve celebration. Today we finalized the first three days of the trip, we went to a church and got ourselves two bottles of holy water, we went to an occult store in Manhattan and invested in two pentacles (mine is a celtic pentacle, dave's a gothic), and I purchased a cell phone charger for the car. The difficult part of the trip is trying to figure out exactly where these haunted areas are, and that has taken quite a lot of time.

At 11:45 Dave and I went to a local park, stood in the sand and performed a protective ritual for our journey that involved the pentacles, and a drawn pentacle in the sand that we stood in while performing the ritual, holy water, sangria, and a cigarette for inscence purposes. We started the ritual at 11:59 and ended it at the chime of the new year. It was a rather decent start to Adventure 2007. Afterwards we watched the fire works in Manhattan and I thought of the people I care about and how they were spending their new years eve.

And now the time has come for Adventure 2007. May I survive it!
