You saw me standing alone
As you may have heard around in the news, tonight is a “blue moon,” a rare occurrence of the second full moon in one month. Steeped in legend, it’s gotta portend good things for 2010.
Driving home last night, the almost-full moon cast an eerie glow over the snowy plains of Colorado, making everything visible as if it was daylight. Tonight will be even brighter.
Happy blue moon, happy New Year’s everyone. Here’s to 2010.

PS: My friend is trying to convince me to do the Polar Bear Plunge tomorrow in Boulder. I’m considering it.

Oh, you gotta take the plunge, just to say you did it. I think I’m gonna do it here in Rochester in another couple of months. Happy new year!

Heather,
Happy new year to you from France. I read your blog everyday, it’s always a pleasure but i don’t often leave comment because i’ve got difficulties to write in english.
Perhaps will i try to be more courageous in 2010 and leave once in a while some comments.
I did not know the meaning of “Blue Moon” and i’m happy to be less ignorant
thanks and happy new year again

Blue Moon used to be a specialty ice cream from a now- gone local vendor.I miss it. But Happy New Year to you and yours and I see you did take the plunge! Congrats!
