I don't know about you, but I'm having a miserable time trying to get 2010 started. It's bitter cold out, the usual post-holiday let-down around the Fox household has seemed worse that usual this year, my syllabi are all a mess, the book orders weren't placed correctly, and spring semester starting in a few days...I'm just really having a hard time feeling that promise which a fresh calendar is supposed to bring.
Fortunately, Rick Springfield knows how I feel. He's been there. Coming out of suspended animation, dealing with aliens and morlocks, wearing velcro and spandex...man, it's not easy to adjust to a new year.
You know, in particular reference to Rod Stewart last week, I'm beginning to think that maybe there should just be a law that forbids all white people from dancing, ever.
It seems that there will be a lot of changes in technology in the next 6 years, and some frightful inflation in hair and waist-lines.
ReplyDeleteWe can only hope you're wrong, Matt. I'm frightened about the rise of shrunken, multi-eyed saxophonists as well.
