The past 72 hours have been punishing physically--I actually had to skip both New Year's Eve parties I'd been invited to--and while I'm in a really good mood, you know, fuck.
But yesterday I received the sweetest missive from someone saying how much she enjoys my work and today I received a different note from someone and he basically said the same thing.
It's incredibly gratifying for anyone to receive such rockin' feedback, but when you're lying flat in pain in a dark room, it's that much more so.
So I still think 2009 is off to a great start.

2009 has got to be way better than 2008... I predict better donuts.
The funny and thing is that Top Pot Doughnuts seems absolutely recession-proof. I think, in part, b/c they're awesome, but also b/c when people are broke, they might not want to go out to lunch, but they can still afford a doughnut and drip.
So, yes, better doughnuts in 2009! And continuing the wish humans have borne through the millennia: all of the good parts and less of the crap.
