Farewell And Don' t Come Back!

2010 I hated you, you were horrible to me. I am glad you are over. I am glad we have a superficial but permanent boundary between us :D . You ruined my past and questioned my future, and you did not make for a really good present. So farewell and do not come back!

A grid of false axioms.

Children thrive on routine, they know when to expect what. Child's frustration usually is caused by the lack of knowledge. The genius of children is that they accept that what they do not know.

I soothe myself with a routine as well, but my frustrations have a different source. I have a grid of false axioms that I orient myself around. Now, since axioms are largely false my grid is often broken. So for the 2011 and on I am going to rename my axioms to "hypothesis". I hope that will help me become less judgmental about people and events in my life. I suppose that would make for a better support net.

So goodbye ultimatums, hello compromises.

It must have been an article in the Real Simple that said that it is a good idea to have "house wine" at home. A wine that no matter what it is paired with will always rock your world, so you keep several bottles around just in case.

I crown thee my house white wine of 2011.
