Are You 'Letting Down' Or 'Let Down' Today?







Good morning/afternoon/evening/dawn! How's everyone doing on this Day After Christmas? Did you discover if you had been Naughty Or Nice? Did yet another family member give you a gift you will have to return? Or, were you happily fulfilled by both food and gifts?

Unless you must jump on a plane, maneuvering through hoards of Other Travelers and grimacing through the microscope of TSA, for the majority of Americans, today is another form of a holiday if you don't need to work. Others rush right back to their cubicles or Corner Offices to Seal The Deal. Tsk-tsk to the Type A's who could be resting rather than investing - or whatever the job may entail. For me, it's a partial Down-Time Day before I once more pack my bags and zip back to my abode. It has been very nice to "get away" from L.A. after months of madness of one sort or another. To say I needed a break is The Biggest Understatement of my year.

We still have New Year's Eve ahead of us - the One Night of the year when Celebrations abound around the world, filling the atmosphere with gorgeous visions of fireworks displays while bands play and many make merry. And then, of course, the 1st of January brings More Football Games and more parties which often means More Food and excessive shouting at the TV when Another Dense (or bought) Referee makes a horrible call.

Such is the way of Rituals/Traditions.

Nevertheless, for now, I hope you are enjoying whatever yours may be for the Day After Christmas.

Until the Typing Fingers are on back on track, I bid you a fond farewell in writing until Saturday. Don't forget that at TDFB, Friday's are Silly-Funny-Punny Days to lighten our minds and to set a hopefully pleasant tone for the weekend with comedy, parodies and strange art.

Enjoy what remains of your holiday!
