There is a lot of promise for the upcoming year. Here are some of my hopefuls…

1. That I will keep on this most excellent spiritual path.
2. That in November 2008, the United States will come to its
senses and start thinking and responding instead of dumbing
down and reacting.
3. That those politicians who have been responsible for the
worst of the damage will be held accountable in a court of law.
4. That I will lose even more fear about the future.
5. More and better health for everyone!
6. Travel, travel, travel…
7. That my family will finally acknowledge the personal sacrifices
I have made for them in the past 2-3 years.
8. That I won’t give a rat’s ass what they think.
9. I will be gifted in seeing something really amazing.
10. If I am grateful, then my life will change for the better.

So far so good. That’s enough for now, but thanks to my mysterious and secretive readership. You have all helped me through many situations and have celebrated with me as well. It takes two to tango…

I visited my father and his wife the other day in The Big City. I was mentally, spiritually, and emotionally prepared. It was a very nice 24 hours with them. The weather was good, the food was edible, the conversations were civil, and I didn’t rankle when they engaged in their personal obsession about weight gain/loss, exercise, etc…This is an example,
Pop: So, do you have a scale?
Me: Nope.
Pop: You mean you don’t weigh yourself?
Me: Nope.

‘Nuff said about his obsessive compulsive attitude towards weight, weight gain, and working out.

We exchanged gifts, and then I left Friday on the train back home. It was good to be home. The Big City was pretty crazy.

Our Christmas tree is up and mom and I will decorate it tomorrow. I have photographic news, and other stuff too, but I am suddenly feeling the non-blogging bug. So much to say and no words to describe it.

“Grey’s Anatomy” is driving me crazy. I have just finished Season 3. I have been told by some actual hospital pros that the scenarios are not far off the mark. Let’s just hope they wash their hands.

I am starting “Dexter” tonight. If you don’t know it’s the show with Michael C. Hall of “6 Feet Under” fame playing a forensics expert who becomes a serial killer. It’s supposed to be gruesome and funny, if those two words can be combined.

I’m off to dinner with friends and then a meeting. La-di-da…I need coffee…
