New Year's Day
*sings like Bono* "I... will be with you again. I... I will begin again..."
Always my favorite U2 song. Very haunting in its own way.
*ahem* It is really freaking cold here. After a balmy thirty-two degrees all day yesterday I step outside this morning to brisk eighteen degree weather. (Yes, I know you people in Europe have no idea what I'm talking about. Let's just say the temperature here is like, 3 or something.) Since my job involves a decent amount of going outside this will be a chilly day.
Our New Year's festivities included the gigantic bash at
kakita_shisumo and
duendegrrl 's house and then relaxing at home watching Sci Fi Channel's Twilight Zone marathon. I only went to bed because I had to get up for work. With all the bitter cold and staying up late last night I know I will sleep very well tonight.
Did 2007 feel like a long year to anyone else? To me it felt like about three years. Maybe it's because I was so unhappy for most of it, but it really seemed to just drag on and on.
I'd like to make a second New Year's resolution: to read more books. I think I just barely read ten last year and that's not acceptable. So I hereby resolve to read twenty at a minimum. If I can read twenty-four - two for each month - so much the better.
Anyway, it's a new year and time for a new song...
