Happy New Year - the iceman cometh

They say that the first rule of writing - especially when you're in a block - is to wrote garbage. Which is what I'm doing. To hell with intention - it's the action that counts. So this year, it's gonna be all about the action. Doing as opposed to twiddling the appendage oft used (thumb silly!).

I love this thing about living in the hope of 'what next.' Isn't that a bit like - the greatest has-been that never-was? Because by the time you've gotten to the point where doing something will probably achieve the desired result: hey - that moment's gone. Past. Manyana. And you're on your bum again in front of the tv.

It's the first day of the New Year and I haven't a clue what I'm going to do. It's a holiday, so that's kinda nice. Watterson said that there is never enough time to do all the nothing that you want. I'm about to find out the hard way. I looked at a random horoscope and it said that in 2008, I'd be very popular. I'm elated. I've always wanted to be popular. Like Superman or Roger Federer. Actually, like JK Rolwling.

Peace out.
