Blue Monday...

Yesterday was unofficially "Blue Monday" which is the gloomiest day of the year. Last year it was something like January 11th. It is determined based on the fact that the holidays are over, the first credit card bills have started to roll in and there is little to look forward for a substancial period of time.

It was a pretty crappy Monday with the sun not creeping up enough to give us any hope that it's anything beyond 3:30 p.m. all day. I was tired from a very fun filled weekend with a friend. But if yesterday was the worst day of the year then this is going to be a great year!

* I got to see baby Lucia and hang out with her - who doesn't love new babies!

* A dear friend of mine got her greencard!

* I got to hang out with one of my childhood pals all weekend.

* I got a call from one of my best pals in Cleveland with a promise of a follow-up call (I was hanging out with baby.)

* Even my work meeting went extremely well.

Welcome 2007! This is going to be a great year!
