I was about to pop open my last bottle of beer from the cooler when somehow the bottle beside it burst and something hit me in my face just below my right eye.  It could be the bottle cap, it could be broken glass.

The wound was big, it required stitches.  I’m just glad it didn’t hit my eye.  Honestly, I don’t mind the wound but it just effectively halted my holiday drinking spree.  I know, it sucks.  Reunion with friends while binge drinking, what a torture!

Looking at the bright side, I get to take care of my wife during the holidays because she’s pregnant! She needs special care because she has subchorionic hemorrhage.  I wrote that my chances of impregnating my wife were slim and none.  I guess “slim” won.

On a more serious note, please pray for us.  We need this baby born normally.  As I’ve mentioned earlier, it’s hard for us to make a baby.  This one took us five years.

Happy New Year!

Anywayz, let me share what I learned today.

It seems the origin of this celebration is not clear. One popular explanation traces its roots to 1564, when French King Charles IX decided to adopt the Gregorian calendar. This move shifted New Year’s Day from April 1 to January 1.

Some French citizens refused to follow the new calendar and continued to celebrate New Year on the first day of April. Others ridiculed this attachment to the old ways by sending silly gifts. This prank practice continued annually worldwide to become what is now known as April Fool’s Day.

Cheers!
