I'm back. 'Tis good. I sat for 3 1/2 hours next to a baby that didn't cry. And he was fairly lively, so I don't think drugs were the cause of his lack 'o fussiness.

Thinking about the new year and what I want to do different from this last year. So far, it's rather ambitious. But I think this year will be different. At least, I hope it will be.

Best of luck to you all and your hopes and dreams and ambitions for the new year.
