Gotta love Wilma.

On the twelfth day of Newton: slowing down
So, about now is when the holiday energy line graph starts taking a downward dive, mission drift sets in, and things get a little raggedy. It's not really "New Year's" anymore in any reasonable sense, but there's probably still some people you haven't seen since the ball dropped, so you can't quite stop saying "Happy New Year." It's clearly not a holiday anymore, or even that weird week between holidays, but even if you have gone into work it is a weekend so once again you're at home in your pajamas at noon. You feel like you should be turning over a new leaf and putting holiday excess behind you and eating right and all that but there's probably still some festive once-a-year food lying around. What better way to commemorate this cheerful malaise with an image that isn't even remotely related to anything holidayish?

On the tenth day of Newton: well, that explains a lot...
So, here's something to help us begin our year in the right frame of mind:
BTW, notwithstanding all the current calendrical hullabaloo (including my own contributions), I reserve the right to once again officially begin my new year of achievement according to the Celestial Lunisolar Calendar. So I'll be digging it on January 31st, when the Chinese Year of the Horse starts! I might even have some news by then...

On the ninth day of Newton: New Year's Day!
Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo
Let's storm into 2014 with the power of a galloping bison and leave 2013 in our dust! Wah-hoo!
Here are my Perennial Resolutions™:
The inward-facing word for the year: Fruitful
The outward-facing word for the year: Patience
Peace out, everyone.

Here are my Perennial Resolutions™:
- I will try to listen more and talk less.
- I will try to ask more questions and make fewer statements.
- I will try to approach every circumstance with compassion and a little kindness.
The inward-facing word for the year: Fruitful
