HAPPY NEW YEAR! We are still saying that right? I always found the awkward first few weeks of January to be rather funny. The first few days people enthusiastically say Happy New Year to each other and it’s fun. Then a week goes by and the energy drops a bit and it more of a pleasant thing to add to a greeting or goodbye. After two weeks people start saying it as if they have to make sure they say it to everyone they missed in the first weeks. Finally, after something bad happens to them, they sneer Happy New Year To Me! After today I am not saying it. I said it a bunch last year and that didn’t work out so well. After today I am not telling people to have a Happy New Year. Nope. I am sneaking into this year real quiet like and hoping no one or nothing notices me. I’m in stealth mode.
