Although a small earthquake jolted me awake at 5:45am today, I intend to make it to midnight tonight so I can assist 2020 out the door none too gently with my foot. The year threw the family one last curve a few hours ago, and I for one am ready to see it go. Movies and booze are in order. I have “The Rise of Skywalker” to start off the evening, and pulled out some other entertainment to keep me going the remaining hours:

This was the only little bottle of screwtop champagne the store had; I have no idea whether it’s any good but a screwtop is a must. I am averse to pulling champagne corks since The Incident that ended 2017…

I wish you a 2021 full of many happy hours of creativity. Cheers and Prosit!
