:chuckle:

My answer's a prediction - it's past 10 here and I'm still up. (But not for long :yawn:)

The US Strategic command says to cherish those hours you stayed up, for they could always blow everyone up instead! Sleep tight!

Poll should have a Poland (Central European Time) option.

I answered "lasted until midnight" but in a slight variation this year I got into bed at 11:59. And listened to fireworks.

It was a low key NYE here - we didn't have firecrackers going off in the alley like we usually do, but I think I heard people banging on pots and pans. Kicking it old school.

Like a refugee. Do you live in an area that can't afford fireworks? :P

The trend here is to get MORE fireworks when the economy sucks. Possibly in an attempt to show that everything is JUST FINE.

I should probably confess that, while I did stay up past midnight, I also might have changed into my pajamas by 7 or so.

(Which is extra embarrassing because I admitted that I was still in my pajamas at around noon yesterday, too. I DID wear grownup clothes for several hours yesterday, though, I swear.)

I only change out of PJs when I need to leave the house.

Matlock is also a big "Pajama Sam" like that, but I have to take a shower and get all dressed every day or I feel like some kind of a slatternly fishwife rather than the cool type of dirtbag I actually am.

I went out into the garden just before midnight to listen to local fireworks being let off. And I saw a few of the ones that flew high in the sky - though they were about half a mile or more away.

Then I went to bed at about 00:15, but stayed awake till about 3 a.m. browsing on a tablet and watching Netflix.

I voted "made it to midnight and promptly went to bed" but the truth is more nuanced. We were in the middle of a game when midnight struck, so we finished. Then I read for a bit, dozed off and stumbled into bed around 2AM.

That's what rigorist did - I gave him pajamas as a belated Christmas present, and he had them on at 7 pm.

:freakout:

I don't now how to vote! I was up until 1, but only because we started a movie at 11 and paused it in the middle to watch the ball drop.

Wait! I was in a stupid-ass state that doesn't do daylight savings so it was midnight everywhere else in my time-zone when I went to bed an hour later. Problem solved.

:phew:
