<\/a>This year, with my scary new health issue, I’m more grateful than ever to be alive. And I’m especially grateful to modern technology and medicine for\u00a0keeping me that way!!!<\/p>\nI didn’t mean to bring the room down; rather, I hoped that reminding everyone to have gratitude, especially at year’s end, would elevate<\/em> the mood!<\/p>\n Speaking of good moods, I was lucky enough this year to be invited to two equally-attractive-yet-very-different soirees. I’ve been driving myself (and everyone else!,) crazy trying to figure out how to attend both! One’s uber-cas, and the other is mega-glam. We can drive ourselves to the casual one, the other requires a driver. I like both hostesses, and they’ll both have wonderful chow. And both fetes will be gorgeous! So, what’s a popular girl to do?! Which do you think I’ll opt for? Read on to find-out.<\/p>\n Ready? You may be shocked to know that I chose the casual<\/em> one. Here are my only two tie-breakers: The hostess is one of my best friends, and, for me, friendship trumps everything. Also, Mr. X is very comfortable there, which is of paramount importance to me. So, that’s it then. Or is it?<\/p>\n I’m praying it is, but I’m very worried because Mr. X woke-up sick yesterday. We’ve done all the voodoo we could possibly do on his cold, and I’m begging the universe to make that be enough. You know I go out without him all the time, but the only three nights I won’t flat-leave him are Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and New Year’s Eve. We usually choose to stay home on December 31, and just be cozy, but this year, we decided that, with such wonderful invitations, we’re happier going out. So now we’re doing everything in our power to make that work-out. [Note: If you really want to know what happened with this sitch, I’ll be tweeting it. @MajorCelebrity.]<\/p>\n
