I find New Years Day the most boring day of the year, the other I also hate is the 4th of July. Everything is closed, and nothing to do and there's nowhere to go. The gas stations around here are closed (learned that the hard way a few years back trying to get gas on an empty tank on New Years Day!), and the grocery stores are closed. It's like preparing for a blizzard - make sure you get your food and gas beforehand! Can't wait for the holidays to BE GONE!!!!!
