today is the first day of the rest of my life

the day is almost over. another day closer to tomorrow - did you know it's the first day of the rest of my life?

pretty sweet. i know.

but, if that old saw rings true, and that "today is the first day of the rest of my life", what ended yesterday? should i be mourning? happy? upset that something is done forever? was that part of my life too? no? which part then? i mean, the rest didn't start till today/tomorrow morning. so, what was everything up until then?

i like riddles, but this is just plain frustrating.

and, if tomorrow morning the rest of my life starts, can i go anything i want now? i'm already pretending my coffee is not so much a doubledouble but a marlboro... hmmm


well, whatever today has been, it's been slow. humid, stuffy, and slow. here's to this evening's start of the rest of ...well whatever. i'll drink to that when i get there.
