Comforting Rituals

The new year always starts the same way: waking up my friends and reminding them to come over for dinner.

"Hey, how's it going?"
"Uhh, what?"
"Are you still coming to dinner tonight?"
"What?"
"New Year's Day dinner at my parents."
"Ohhhh, uh, yeah, is that today?"
"Yeah, you know, New Year's Day? Last night was New Year's Eve?"
"Ummm, oh yeah! ughm, ok. Uh, what time are we supposed to be there?"
"4pm."
"What?"
"Four."
"Five?"
"Four."
"What?"
"Today 4pm. My parents house."
"oh yeah, ok. what time is it now?"
"3:30"
"uh... ok, lemme get out of bed. We might be a little late."
"Ok."
