Due to technical difficulties (seriously), the article I intended to write last month in the previous year is being written and posted this month of the current year.
For the second year in a row, I forgot to post the annual link to the words to Auld Lang Syne, the international theme song of the New Year by Robert Burns, the Scottish Bard. This is a tradition of the Cuparium since 1999, which was also the year of the Cuparium’s birth. Ten years already. Good grief.
I also forgot to mention something I usually reserve for September or October, which is my annual self-back-patting for having successfully survived another year without smoking a single cigarette. That makes it a little over seven years since I quit. And although I haven’t quit pipes or cigars, I have coincidentally abstained from smoking either for the last 14 months.
Despite the late posting, I am hopeful that 2010 will be a more productive year both in and out of the Web logs.
Have a great year!
You might not remember me from your talkcity days but was talking with catie and wanted to stop by and say allo’ :)
Aloha!
Of course I remember! The Cuparium’s doors are always open to the gang from the Netcafe. Happy New Year!
[...] wasn’t easy, but I haven’t smoked a single cigarette in all that time. As I mentioned last year around this time, I have also coincidentally abstained from smoking pipes and cigars for 26 months [...]
