Happy New Year
I haven’t blogged in ages because I never have anything to say, so I thought I’d just wish everyone a happy New Year. Don’t forget to watch the Rose Bowl tomorrow and cheer for Michigan!

Our tree fell over. It had been a little wobbly last night when we were putting it up, but it wasn’t falling over wobbly. But when I came downstairs this morning, it was partly falling over. I tried to fix it, but it’s really too big and heavy for me to move, so I think I just made it worse. It ended up being held up only by the piece of fishing line I had tied to the railing to stablize it, and eventually that broke and it fell over. It only shattered one bulb, so it could have been much worse, but it was still annoying. And poor Daniel had to run home from work for a while to help me get it back up because I couldn’t do it myself. He readjusted the screws in the stand, so now it is no longer in danger of falling. Any falling it would do now would be towards the stairs and the wall, where it has no place to go. So the crisis has been taken care of without too much trouble.
So, I was going through the mail today, opening things like bills and Christmas cards, and there was this thing from Saturn. I opened it up, expecting it to be something like “bring in your car for maintainance” or that sort of thing. It turned out to be a card, and on the inside it said, “…with special Birthday Greetings to your Saturn.” They sent my car a birthday card. This is perhaps one of the strangest things I’ve ever seen, but it’s very funny. Who knows, maybe the car will appreciate it.
