Happy New Year's Eve! We're planning a quiet evening here in the BlueTower, and are very happy about that. I'm also happy that I'm not in any oral pain, as it turns out I need to go back to Dr. Toothy when he has more time for me, since there are two things he can do in the same area at once, which would be optimal. You can look forward to my whining about that in a couple of weeks, around the time of my new appointment. As for tonight, I'll offer my usual warnings about being careful on what is a heyday for amateur drinking: Please be safe, especially on the road. And of course, to those in areas like Australia where it's already 2012, please don't reveal what the future holds, as my flux capacitor is on the fritz, and I may not be able to go back set things right.
