2013 has GOT to be better…(my mantra for the last week or so)

2013 is better (My current mantra)

WTF, it’s SNOWING!!!! (yesterday morning)

I wonder what’s open so I can get something to drink (me at 1:14pm at WEFT)

My goal for 2013 is to be positive and keep the space around me positive. Slow down, stay in the moment and remember I can do whatever I want.

If you’re trying to figure out a New Year’s resolution, may I humbly suggest adopting “Don’t be a dick” as words to live by?

Neil Gaiman:

It’s a New Year and with it comes a fresh opportunity to shape our world.

So this is my wish, a wish for me as much as it is a wish for you: in the world to come, let us be brave – let us walk into the dark without fear, and step into the unknown with smiles on our faces, even if we’re faking them.

And whatever happens to us, whatever we make, whatever we learn, let us take joy in it. We can find joy in the world if it’s joy we’re looking for, we can take joy in the act of creation.

So that is my wish for you, and for me. Bravery and joy.

We started our new year with Kathi in the hospital (atrial fibullation) and Lily in Virginia…Brad and Ann Marie came over and we played Arabian Nights until 9ish…they left when TC came home and he and I watched the Ball drop in times square at 11pm (midnight Eastern) and went to bed. Cheron and Sean are gone until Jan. 3 (gone to Virginia to pick up the kid…Cheron was going to celebrate New Year’s Eve in Atlanta with her friends from CoH, but she has been sick for a week.

The water therapy helps (saw the physical therapist yesterday AM) but I have to keep it up on my own because my gluts are still weak and my sciatic nerve is being pinched…

I’m hanging out here at the radio station. Had a lovely discussion with Ed who is concerned that I am trying to do too much here and that I need to step back and focus or I will burn out. Good point…(since I started this on New Year’s Day and forgot to post it until just now)

more later….

Yeah, so I don’t do NY resolutions. This year, I will, however, attempt to remember that we are just playthings of the gods.

Re “don’t be a dick”

This is unavoidable. Unless one retreats to Montana to live in a sod house and raise green beans (alone), one’s going to be a dick. You’re gonna be a dick to somebody. You may not mean to be. You may never know you were a dick to somebody. It may be that you weren’t a dick at all, but somebody is going to blame you for whatever dickish thing happened to them. But you are always going to be somebody’s dick. I think the sooner we all accept that, the happier we will all be. Look at it this way: both Wil Wheaton and Neil Gaiman have said things I think make them dicks.
