Happy new year! It's still fairly new, you know. There's still time to do (almost) all those things we might have been thinking, as we stood there with the prickling of champagne still in our noses, while the bells were ringing and thousands of birds were falling dead from the skies possibly frightened to death by fireworks*, "this year I'll..."
For me the year started out rather oddly, with experiences even in the very first day of the year ranging from what I hope I won't have to do again anytime soon - or preferably ever again - to what I hope there'll me much more of. As for the less good of the two, it would be tempting to say that at least with such a bad start to the year, things can only get better. I'm not quite stupid or naive or spoilt enough to think that, though; sometimes, unfortunately, you might think you've hit rock bottom only to find that this was merely a soft, sedimentary rock which crumbles beneath you and leaves you tumbling head-first towards the real granite floor... But let's hope that's not the case here. What we can say for sure is that there's room for improvement - do you hear that, 2011? Let's make a deal, dear year, I'll do my best if you do yours. Let's see where we can get from here, upwards & onwards!
...and the above was written on the 11 January and not posted until now. Sorry! Is the year still new-ish? In that case a make a new-ish year resolution right now: I'm going to post more regularly and frequently in this blog. Let's say at least once a week! (ooh, that's a bold undertaking, but I'm all for bold undertakings, so here goes)
