Dos mil y diez o veinte diez

Whatever it is, it's 2010. A new year. A new decade, or maybe one year shy of a new decade. An opportunity to mark the beginning, or the end, or both.

I don't yet have any New Year's resolutions, at least none that have any basis in reality. But I will. And when I do, they will be significant. Very significant. Things will be different. I will be different. And different will be good. Very good.

In the interim, I'll devote my time to getting my wife's eye infection, or whatever it is, behind her so she can start the New Year feeling better and in a better frame of mind. After all, the New Year begins when you decide it does and not a minute sooner. Our New Year may begin January 4 or January 20 or March 29. When it does, it will be the start of a spectacular New Year.

I hope you who read this have a spectacular New Year, as well, whenever it began...or begins.

All the best to you, too, John.

Oh, spectacular, indeed.

And I love your attitude about the New Year starting when I damn well say it does.

Interesting, but since Don died, my "new year" begins in September too.
