Resolute will...

Strong minded, resolutely willed, you can create out of nothing a great business, a huge empire, a new world. Others have and they have no monopoly. - Claude M. Bristol, 1891 - 1951

December 31...

From today's "Writer's Block": Do you usually call your friends and/or family on New Year's Eve? Do you watch the countdown or ball drop on TV or choose to ignore it? What are your favorite New Year traditions?

I like to spend at least part of the evening on New Year's Eve with friends.

My instinct and desire on New Year's Eve is to start as I mean to go on, and to do what I want, rather than what I'm expected to want. So: my personal tradition on New Year's Eve is that, after seeing friends, having a good time, wishing them a good new year, I like to do some yoga and go to bed early.

Perverted, I know.

This year, I plan to add another tradition. I plan to drink on New Year's Eve. Yes, drink alcohol. I plan to drink one Sonic Screwdriver for good luck.
