Perhaps I should start off 2019 by UPDATING EVERY DAY? HA HA HA HA HA that was a joke, since 2019 started yesterday, and I did not update. Anyway, I thought I would/could briefly update, once I heard that nice little lyric above on my way in to work today. It’s pothole-laden, iceblock-ridden, frigid-rigid January once more, with no end (well, 29 days away) in sight, and everything’s regular gray without Christmassy-ness (at least we left our tree up for a couple more days). And though it was only four years of my life, I can’t help but feel the edge of upcoming competition season, that razor focus, the impending implosions and self-supplied humiliation yet fun attention of showing off skills and being scored for each move. No wonder I am pretty confident, how else would I have gotten through gymnastics? And how I miss it and love it so, still.

Anyway. I have Actual Work to do, but just sayin’, hello January.

ETA: Also for some reason my EOY post never showed in my RSS feed. WTF? In case yours is the same, and you are DYING TO READ my 2018 THOUGHTS, here they are.
