List #180: It's New Year's Eve

And I'll be working a full shift at the library, though technically we are closing early. And then I'm off for some traditional fun with old friends. I hope to make many toasts throughout the night to health, friendship, happiness, and adventure.

And when the countdown to midnight begins, in addition to missing Dick Clark, I'll be crossing my fingers, my toes, and my heart for continued good fortune and a little bit of magic in 2013.

Maybe by this time next year we'll all be a little bit smarter, a little bit wiser, a little bit happier, a little bit healthier, and a little bit more loved, and a little bit more in love.

I'm hoping for some dreams to come true in 2013. Both for me and you.
