I was bummed that I couldn't hang out with my boyfriend on New Year's Eve -- I wanted someone to smooch as the clock struck 12! I texted him saying this, and he replied, "Don't worry, we'll find something to replace our kiss at midnight." I wondered what he was talking about, but we changed the subject and started talking about something else. As the final seconds before midnight ticked off, I wondered what my thoughtful boyfriend was planning. Then, at the exact second that the ball dropped, I got a text from him saying, "Happy New Year! I love you." What a great way to start of the new year!
