Starting 2013 on the Ground

It was 20 seconds until midnight, everything was ready. The four champagne glasses were on the table and the TV was turned to the station showing the NYC ball.With 15 seconds left, we realized that the champagne was still upstairs,so I ran up to get it. I ran back downstairs as the TV was counting down 10...9...8...7...6..5.... and suddenly... I was on the ground. Everything happened at once. Glass was shattered around me, Esther was bleeding, Samantha was screaming,my parents were yelling "Are you okay?" and suddenly we hear HAPPY NEW YEAR from the TV. it was defiantly an exciting way to start the new year. But I guess if you start the year on the ground, the only way you can go is up.
