It's the day after my birthday, I'm at work, and 26 is already starting to feel on time. It's 3 minutes before I actually have to be at work, which makes me feel pretty damn good today. I suppose nothing really distracted me this morning. I did clean the bathroom and the glass dish that was used for my birthday cake. Got my shoes and socks on, hit one for the road, and then off to walk in the rain. I'm on time, but it's a lonely 'on time'. There's no one in the office yet, and it's rather peaceful. All except that non-stop ringing telephone. Yep.. it's January 5th alright. Nothin' new.
It's 2007, the second day of the new year. The official start to the official next year of my life. Our lives, your life, his life, her life, their lives.. everyone's lives. The next day. Criminals are finally put to justice, the world will start to mend itself back to pieces. Optimism is the only ship I'm sailing. It's the only way to truly just be happy. So.. this year.. just be happy. Happy New Year 2007!
