I didn't do much on New Year's Eve. I laid low. Thank god for my Mexican neighbors or it wouldn't have felt like New Years at all. They held it down with firecrackers and cheers. I even heard an old school toy horn blowing. That brought back memories. I'm happy to have lived another year. Frankly, I never got use to writing 2014. I seemed to mess up the four, or have to think about the year before I wrote it down. I think 2015 will be different.
My New Years resolution is to stop saying the word stupid. That's going to be a tough one, considering we have whole industries dedicated to stupid. We have politicians that vote stupidly, we have sports commentators that say stupid things, we have day time TV that is stupid, we have school curriculums that encourage stupid. There are investors that invest in stupid. I am a product of stupid. The schools I went to taught stupid. The word is easy to use, and frankly, I've been blurting it out far too often. So good-bye old year and stupid, and hello new year and imbecilic. With time comes change.
