Happy New Year, everyone!
I spent the changeover at my mother's house, watching the ball drop in New York at 9pm PST, and then watching the ball drop in Portland at midnight.
Mostly, I did what I could to avoid hearing all of the blah blah about the "new millennium" and "new century." I'm frankly growing very tired of hearing it. And I'm even more tired of fruits like this guy who say -- and I quote -- that people who "insist the new millennium won't start until the year 2001" are "nitpickers."
Hrm. Nitpickers.
Maybe they are nitpickers. But they're also right.
Anyway, enough of that. Bless you all this year. May you find joy!
