And so begins another year. Went to Benihana with a group of friends from work on New Year’s Eve, then finished up the evening at Lakewood Landing, where, coincidentally, I spent last New Year’s. Very different feel this time around, though. Last year, I’d been in Dallas only a few months, and the city still had that new-car smell of possibilities. This year — well, settling in has its pros and cons, I suppose.
2001 was actually pretty great for me, professionally and personally. We’ll see about 2002.
Anyway, I’m back at work, chugging away, sifting through press releases, deleting emails, and admiring the new 2002 Scooby Doo calendar on my cubicle wall.
