this has been a good year for me.

So far I have not heard felix navidad not melikalekimaka even once.

So I have not had to gouge out my eardrums.

I think it is bogus to call December 21st the first day of winter. By the 21st winter is already 1/3 over. And the days are already getting longer and the sun stronger.

Heck, this far south (Kansas City) the really cold parts of winter are usually not more than three weeks long anyway.
