Happy birthday to me.

And so ends what, if I'm lucky, I'll look back on as the worst year of my life (how fitting that it would be a prime number - I've never particularly liked those). But don't worry about that Noah (see Bill Cosby's "Noah and the Ark"), the past is done, and time keeps on slippin', slippin' into the future (see Steve Miller Band).

Heartfelt thanks to all my family and friends for all the good times, phone calls and messages, gifts, food, shelter, companionship, advice, perspective, patience and encouragement. I am a fortunate and privileged person, indeed, to have so many "peeps".

Now, then -it's getting late, and I still have 3/4 a bottle of wine to drink....
