buoyed by love and alcohol
singing auld land syne?

Ha! I was going to ding you for an extra syllable in the second line, but I guess "buoyed" really is a single syllable. My local patois as a child added extra syllables to everything FIE-yur, FOW-ul for fire and fowl, etc. So, nice job... hope you survived the holidays.
