Happy New Year, dear reader!  You’ll forgive me for not meeting you here last night for some kind of year-end wrap-up.  I spent a lot of time writing yesterday, and a couple of times I thought that I should take a few minutes to write an end-of-the-year thing, but ultimately, I was disinterested.  I just didn’t feel like going back and re-examining 2024.  For what reason?  It was a fine year.   Plenty of challenges, plenty of rewards.  But there’s no need to revisit any of it.  I’m increasingly disinterested in the past, finding the present and future much more worthwhile subjects of concentration.  There are audacious plans for 2025 that will require many late nights, tireless dedication, and a great deal of both cunning and ruthlessness.  But what doesn’t, these days?

Buckle up, dear reader…I’ve seen such things before, and 2025 has all the earmarks of wild ride.  #LFG
