Okay, not a particularly difficult word and you likely know it already (we’ll start slow in ‘08). However, it’s the second day of a New Year, and this is my reaction to all the things I was going to do, starting Today. And not even Official Resolutions. Just basics, like get all this Christmas stuff out of my face, open the Everest of mail…. Hmmm.

Maybe I should switch to double espresso, but I don’t want to strain anything right off the bat, either…..

Are you tarrying in this New Year? Or plunging in?
