Ho, ho, ho! Happy New Year!
Now I certainly do not want to rain on your Rose Parade, but…
All that happened was this little ball of dirt we call home completed another circuit around the sun. Hooray.
We are celebrating Cosmic Nascar. And Mercury just lapped us again.
Oh Bother! (Yes, bother. Didn’t you read the classics when you were a kid?)
However, I am a not fussy man. Not like Old Uncle Bloggsy, who has his own blog; http://www.newberry.org/book-fair-blog. He puts the “mudge” in curmudgeon.
2012 was full of memorable events. Some of which filled me with joy, others that left me sobbing by the side of the road. Nevertheless, it was ride not to be missed. Now that I think of it, perhaps New Year doesn’t come from a bottle. And the true meaning of New Year is something much more. It is a reference point. And any scientist will tell you, reference points are most important. This is a time when we traditionally look at ourselves and assess the good and the bad.
So how did you do?
Dr Tim’s year was a bit extreme. I sunk as low as a man could go. Went into isolation. Hell looked like Heaven after what I was going through. And it burned. I had my soul hammered on the anvils of Hell. My thoughts, principles, ethics and life were in balance. And I almost let go. Would have been easy too. No more pain, no more suffering, no more darn alarm clocks. Death has always fascinated me. When my first wedding became known folks commented that it was like “Edgar Allen Poe marrying Sylvia Plath.” There no longer seemed to be a point.
But then that old spark lit up my brain like the Fourth of July. Seems as though I am made of some pretty stern stuff. I remembered who I was; I was me the whole time. Imagine my surprise. Found my reference point, re-anchored and came out the other side. Singed, but shining. Told you that reference points were important.
And how I laughed as Kathy Griffin kept trying to give Anderson Cooper a blowjob on CNN. She slips down to her knees very easily, if you catch my drift. Suddenly I am much more attracted to her!
2013, how ya doing? Not sure what you have in store for me, but in the words of a famous politician, “Bring It On!”
Oh yes, be sure to love and always use your Official Doc Johnson Toys and Lubes! After all, if I am sticking around, Daddy needs to get paid! (ANME Show next week! Wait until you see what Doc Johnson is bringing soon to a bedroom near you!)
