New Year's Kiss?

[scotrace]

Kissing? Sure, I'm up for it. Anyone wanna?

New Year's in Indy?

This New Year's I'm visiting my dad and stepmom, so I guess I'll be kissing the baby. Oh well, he's the cutest guy I've ever seen, so I'm ok with it lol

I remember once I went to a rockabilly show in Indy for New Year's and kissed a handsome complete stranger who was standing by the bathrooms, because it was New Year's at midnight and I wanted a kiss. After it was over, I started to walk away, and he said, "Wait...you mean that's it?" And I said, "Yup. Thanks for the kiss." I never saw him again. It's one of my best New Year's memories...

nyx, what year was this? Was it at Fountain Square Theater? I actually went one year, maybe two.

One cool thing was she used to write great letters. I used to get one and keep it in my pocket all day, savoring it until late that evening when I would finally open it.

I love this story, aren't "real" letters the best? Especially since it seems nobody writes them anymore.

The last couple of years I've been out with a large group of friends on NYE. Generally kisses on the cheek for all but the closest friends.

On a related note, I had a holiday party last Saturday and my friend Chris brought his parents who were visiting from Iowa along. Much drinking was done and it took his parents over half an hour to leave because they were kissing everyone on the lips, whether they knew them or not, on the way out the door. The father, in particular, was a bit on the fresh side shall we say; word got around quick amongst the girls and soon he was only getting begrudging handshakes from the female contingent! My poor friend was mortified as he shoved his parents into a cab and ran back to the party.

Me - I'm a kissing machine that night. Case in point - I've kissed a girlfriend just to keep some sketchy fellas away. I don't swing that way - except in cases of emergency I guess. I've kissed a few strangers - just because they were handsome and chatting me up. I even kissed a skinhead. For some reason it seemed like a good idea at the time. Now I just get to check that off my list of dumb things I did in my youth.

Kisses on cheeks are always welcome, lips on occasion with someone special or the potential of special.

So line 'em up fellas - I'm all yours.

Kissing them, taking them bowling, maybe it'll help them be less angry.

Come down to Florida.

 

[thebadmamajama]

Since I won't be able to be with my man on that day, and haven't yet, I'll be keeping me lips to me-self.

last new years kiss, ah...before my kids were born. I had a 105 degree temp and found myself standing outside on a 4X4 post with a hose putting out my neighbors compost pile fire. {they emptied the fireplace ashes on the pile } got a peck on the cheek from my wife. We had planned on being at a party that night when I got sick. Now I try not to go out on "amateur nite"

The last time my son did the BIG KISS plan for New Years....well he married her:eusa_clap [a group of 16 friends, boys and girls all flew from LA to NY for New Years in Times Square, he had asked her to marry him in Central park, ]lol lol

I've tried that line a couple of times before. Hasn't worked yet.lol

I thought that if you couldn't be with the one you loved...

But I guess that falls outside the "Golden Era" mentality.

Your honor becomes you. :eusa_clap

Try mine...

"Does this smell like ether to you?"

(you'll need a handkerchief splashed with ether of course)

 

[MrNewportCustom]

No, that'll be the night!

THAT's why you're not getting kissed - It's at 12 AM, not 12 PM...!

Don't sock me.

T.

So THAT'S what I've been doing wrong all these years! lol

Oh yes, two girls kissing. That will drive the sketchy fellows away every time.

Oh goodness, let me count back. It was 2000, I think, or 1999. But I think 2000. Yes, it was the Fountain Square Theater. Bill Haley's Comets were playing, along with Big Sandy and a few other acts that year.

You didn't happen to be standing by the bathrooms and get kissed at midnight by an Asian girl dressed in black and red, with bright red lips, did you? Because I will be sooo embarrassed now.

Nope, although that sounds like a sweet deal!
I think I was there for the Comets- Do you recall a guy wearing a red and white gabardine jacket? Check my pictures under "Show Us What you Made" to see it.
I gotta admit, David Loehr managed some good shows...

 

[Miss 1929]

I always kiss mi esposo

And if he isn't there for whatever reason, no one usurps his rights!

Here's another fun New Year's stroke of midnight tradition, from Mexico (I don't know how old it is, but I think it got to be national in the Golden Era):

Everyone at the party gets a little cup with twelve grapes in it.
When midnight approaches, turn on the radio - the strokes of midnight on the main Cathedral in Mexico City are broadcast nationally.
As each stroke gongs, you eat one grape and make one wish - not one you have pre-thought.

This is almost impossible! A grape a second? While thinking? Kissing is much simpler.

I was kind of thinking 'girl.'

The for-now Mrs. Panamag8or does that. Her family is from Puerto Rico.
