Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
My tastes in wine are not very sophisticated. I've been drinking Yellowtail reds for four or five years--I like them as well as some more expensive labels. I find I do like Australian wines, a lot.
Happy New Year, everybody!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am greeting the New Year daylight-style with a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich. Start as you mean to go on, right??

Our wings are not tired.
Sounds like a plan to me. My BFF was just complaining yesterday that after a full year of being vegan her cholesterol is 271 - the exact number that it was a year ago. I may recommend trying bacon egg & cheese. I managed to bring mine down 100 points by adding good stuff, but I don't want to live in a world with no cheese.

So much body stuff is just internal, I think -- my cholesterol and etc. are all good, and I don't do shit about it.

Yeah. Except for Too Much Salt my normal taste in food is a dietician's dream: sparing use of olive oil and margarine in place of butter, lots of grains, brocolli, and leafy vegetables, fruit and yogurt rather than cookies/cakes, not going overboard on the fatty meats except the good kinds like salmon. Despite that, my cholesterol is pretty damn high without medication.

One grudgingly-good-thing about my no-beef, no-milk products diet is that it really helps with the cholesterol. My four closest blood relatives (brothers, mom, aunt) are all on cholesterol drugs.
The New Year is starting off kind of bleary here. I tried to go to sleep around 11 but it didn't happen for a while, and to judge from the hullabaloo drifting in outside, I was awake for midnight.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I'm sorry, ita.
Happy New Year, all. First Night Alexandria was fine aside from a) having remoulade sauce spill all over me as the server put my dinner down and b) the crappy trolley schedule for getting to and from the Masonic temple. (A 30+ minute wait outside for a trolley on NYE? While being subjected to crappy street musicians? And the trolley that was supposed to pick people up after the countdown that didn't? At least the weather wasn't =too= cold)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Ugh. I don't feel as crappy about life as I did yesterday. However, please, when I try and leave for the movies this morning, let there be nothing stopping me. Let today go uneventfully, and *please* let me get to the ER tonight, and let those meds work. I'm almost dizzy with the amount the head is hurting right now. The crying jag yesterday was especially unwise.
But if I don't get out and see a movie, the terrorists will have one.
Speaking of movies, I have a silly crush on Tina Fey. Watching her improvise lines in the credits for Date Night gets me every time. I've never seen the movie from start to end, but I seem to catch the credits a lot.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Happy New Year, everyone! My BFF and I managed to stay awake to see the big ball fall down and then we went to bed. Exciting lives!
Man, poor Dick Clark looks like a marionette. They had some serious makeup on him. I'm glad he's still able to ring in the NY for us though.
Today I plan to wash the bed linens, go see a movie, and try again to get my frakkin' wireless router to work.
