up and away

I am, admittedly, a bit buzzed on 2 glasses of wine (cheap date), but why not revel in it? The best drinking leaves me a little less guarded and a little more enthusiastic.  By the time you read this I may be soaking up the sun in Nicaragua courtesy of my accidental sophomore year roommate, Nancy.  Which brings me to the point of this missive.  This next year is unchartered territory.  I've got nothing planned except my day job and at the moment that has me awfully excited (not my day job, the unknown other).  I've got 6 weeks vacation time and a world at my feet.  I have some vague plans for the free time, but am expectant and unanticipatory about 2009.  The only desires I have at the moment are warmth and foreignness. 
My wish for the new year?  I hope for you all what I hope for myself: an open heart, eyes wide open, spirit rejuvenated, expectations shunned.  I have had so many wonderful moments this year, it feels unfair to even acknowledge them.  I wish blessings on you all, in the tradional meaning: more life.  More life, more love, more fun, more grace.  A glorious year end and a truly beautiful new year to you all.  And thank you for everything.  Really, everything.
At the risk of sounding cheesy:
We are the Wonders of the World.
