So close, so close

After an excellent family dinner (smoked salmon) and a movie ("Margin Call": Opaque storyline, fine acting, no kissing) last evening I got caught up for quite a while in the book I'm reading ("REAMDE") and then, growing sleepy, turned in. Just before snapping off the light I glanced at the clock and it said 11:45. I asked myself, do I really care enough to stay awake another 15 minutes and I answered, nawww. So I didn't.

But I woke up this morning and it was next year anyway, and next year had become this year now, today.

It was supposed to be clear and sunny but it was foggy and dark.
