Show LIFE B6 NYE from B3 once had at exploring this flavor of debauchery had shut. Following a shaky transition from one of Usher's club anthems, as House of Pain's "Jump Around" came on I looked around me—the youngest of adults all obediently jumping around to a song released before any of them had been born—I recognized that perhaps all that is new and euphoric doesn't have a place in my life. Our greatest fears lie in anticipation, and with a year of uncertainty, I needed to start with a firmer foundation. Superstition or not, I couldn't chance spending 2014 defined by meaninglessness and ignorance. It's a younger man's game— younger than me—to take the risk of a year of spent in futility. Maybe it'll get better, one might think. But I've long since learned that there are more worthwhile pursuits than the girl with a bedazzled G-string. I exited fast, knowing full well I'd have to get my tweed jacket dry cleaned if I had any JANUARY 6, 2014 hope of removing the stink of all the sweat and saliva. I pushed my way past a chubby couple locking lips and hockeying tonsils on the dance floor. 45 minutes away, a dozen of my closest friends were in Salt Lake having a small party with finger food and conversation. I floored it and made it there in 30, just under the wire to spend the last fleeting moments of 2013 with the people I love. And this is how the year begins, not with a bang, but with something better.
