Snowed in on New Year’s Eve with Your Girlfriend

Transcript

Yeah, yeah, I know. We wish we could have joined you guys as well. Yeah, I didn't know it was gonna snow so much.

If we'd known we would have got snowed in, we would have left yesterday. It's okay, don't worry about it. We'll be just fine on our own.

You guys be safe though. And remember. ..

Yeah, yeah, I know. No mom speeches. But seriously, be responsible.

I've raised you all very well. Okay, take care. Love you guys and enjoy your new year.

Hey babe. Yeah, yeah, I was just talking to them. Yeah, they were all able to meet up safely, so that's good.

Well, yeah, not everybody. Carol, she wasn't able to make it. Her and Tom.

But it's okay. I don't think anyone expected it to be snowing this much. Yeah, I know.

I mean, it said it was gonna have snowfall, but not this much. Yeah, the weather app sometimes lies to us, huh? So, what are you gonna do now that we're stuck together? Oh, you're so funny.

What a comedian. Yeah, no, no. I'm.

.. It's not bad, you know. I would've liked to have spent New Year's Eve and New Year's with them, but.

.. I don't know. There's just something very Hallmark-y about being snowed in together.

Yeah, yeah. If we were best friends, like friends to lovers, that would be very nice. Yeah, snowed in together, and there's nothing we can do.

And then the lights go out, and my character would be scared of the dark, and so I am holding onto you because I'm scared. And then we. ..

There's only like one candle, and so we light the candle, and then we're. .. I don't know.

We're huddling together for warmth, and we get really close, and then. .. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, yeah.

We would look at each other because that'd be the moonlight shining through, and boom. Kiss. Fireworks.

And then suddenly, the lights turn back on. Yeah, I know. Thank you, thank you.

I'll be looking for my screenwriter overworked. Yeah, yeah, I know. Well, do you want some hot chocolate? Yeah.

Yeah, I made. .. I bought some the other day.

Yeah, you wanted to store with me. I also had to give you a gift. It was for Christmas, but you already got the gift, yeah.

But that was the day that I had to go get your gift, so I went and got some stuff from the store, and hot chocolate was on my list. It's been such a while since I've had it, and I just was craving it, and I figured we could use it especially, and well, we can use it now. So, um, hey, why don't you get everything set up? Are you gonna sit by the fireplace? Yeah, yeah, that'd be really nice and cozy.

So yeah, you just go, um, you go set everything up. Yeah, the blankets, and I'll go get the hot chocolate and some. ..

the goods. Yeah, the goods. Okay, I'll be right back.

Okay, here we are. Here's your hot chocolate, and I'm just gonna set mine down here. Okay, hmm, it's very toasty.

But yeah, of course, I know we're by the fireplace. It feels very warm, though, like, I don't know. Like, not just from the fireplace, just like a warm feeling, I guess.

Mm-hmm. So, we're spending New Year's together. Mm-hmm, well, we're spending New Year's Eve and New Year's together.

I was thinking. .. yes, you know me, ever the thinker.

I know we aren't so big on the whole resolutions thing, just because I think that when people set resolutions, and they call them resolutions, they don't follow through with them. But I was thinking we could just set some intentions for the new year. Yeah, like, not necessarily goals, but just things that we want to do more, that we put our intent into.

Mm-hmm, yeah, yeah. So, okay, well, I was thinking, we spend a lot of time together, right? I mean, case in point, today.

But we go on plenty of dates, and we just spend a lot of time together, and I love that, I do. But sometimes we prioritize that and just other things, like work and school and everything else, and we miss out on a lot. Yeah, like with our friends, I know they're always trying to get us to join them, but we always have something that comes up most of the time.

Yeah, and I don't want us to become those people that spend so much time together that we don't make time for other people in our lives. Yeah, yeah, I know that we're not those types of people, but do you remember, I think I've told you before, I had a friend that we've been friends for years when we were younger, and she was like my best friend. But she got a boyfriend, as most people do, and she got into a relationship, and she didn't really make time for her friends anymore.

And everyone else was kind of upset with her about that, so they kind of just shifted away from her. And then there was me, and I stayed because that's just how I am. But we stopped being friends because it just, it felt like I wasn't being, I wasn't a choice in her life anymore.

And I thought to myself that it wasn't fair to me to be in a friendship with someone where I was giving 100% and they were giving none. So I decided to take a step back, and when I did, it hurt a lot because we were really close. I mean, she was like a sister to me, but it also felt so much more better because I wasn't being hurt.

And I, it just, and now I remember good things about her. And so like when the new year comes around, and when I was younger, especially when that first year that we really stopped being friends, I remember like really wishing that I had her around for the new year. Because I was thinking, the year after this, this will be the first year that we, that maybe she doesn't tell me happy birthday, or that I don't tell her happy birthday.

Or that we don't hang out, or we don't have sleepovers, and all these things. I don't want to make our friends feel that way. I don't want to be that person.

And I just want us to be more appreciative of our friends, because you never know how they might be feeling about things. And I just, I never want them to feel like that we don't care. Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, it's okay now though. I just, it really, when I was younger, I really struggled with it. Because when you lose someone like that, someone that used to be your best friend, like, you know, they say that breakups are hard.

But if you've ever had a friendship breakup, especially when it was like neither of you did anything wrong, really, that sucks. Though genuinely, it does. It's really tough.

But I have my friends, I have our friends, I have you. And I'm really grateful for that. Oh yeah, okay, I did forget the goods.

Wait, I'll be right back. Okay, I have returned with the goods. Excuse me? Okay, snacks are considered the goods.

Okay, I have returned with the goods. Excuse me? Excuse me? Okay, snacks are considered the goods.

Oh, shush you. Do you want this or not? Yeah, yeah, I thought so.

Here. It's still crazy to me though. Yeah, that we got snowed in.

That's never happened to me before. Yeah, never. I mean, it's definitely snowed where we didn't have school back in my hometown.

But it's never been where literally I couldn't leave the house. I'm glad we did go grocery shopping though. I went grocery shopping.

Oh, you did not go grocery shopping with me. You know, because I remember you sending me a list. Yeah, I have the receipts.

Thank you very much. Yeah, you sent me a list because you didn't want to go. I shouldn't have gotten you anything, okay? I should have had you get your own things.

But I'm just so sweet to you, aren't I? Mm-hmm, yeah, yeah. But the next time you decide that you want to send me into the store by myself during the holiday season, I'll game over for you, buddy.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, that reminds me. Okay, I saw this thing.

It was on Instagram, I think. Or, yeah, Instagram. Yeah, I know, I'm never on Instagram.

But I happened to be on it that day. And it was like an Instagram reel. I think they're called reels? Or shorts? No, reels.

Okay, it's YouTube shorts. You know, I don't know. It's not funny, stop making fun of me.

You know, I just, I don't use social media, you know. And so I get confused on what these things are. Yeah, it's like, it's like when I see people using the, um, what, acronyms? Or, yeah, acronyms.

I don't understand them. Like, I remember saying something that was like I-I-R-C or I-R-I-I-C-R or something. Yeah, I didn't know what that meant.

I'm seeing it and I'm like, what is that? And then I remember figuring it out and I was like, what could that be? And someone was saying that it was something that they were referencing from before.

And I'm like, oh, that means, if I remember correctly. But, why couldn't they just, I don't know, type it out? Yeah, I don't get the slang sometimes.

And I, like, um, yeah, there's this thing. It's like pog. What is that? Like, I don't know what that is.

But I always see it with a cat. Yeah, it's like a cat is like kissing the camera or a phone. I don't really know.

Don't ask me. I have no idea. Yeah, yeah, about this thing that I saw.

Okay, someone was saying, I think they said that their grandfather or someone that was close to them told them that you get a jar at the beginning of the year. And throughout the year, you write down.
