Out of the bubble

I’ve spent the last few days in a self-imposed bubble, taking advantage of some days off to work on some poetry, watch some movies (I recommend Syriana, which I watched on DVR today, and Sherlock Holmes, which is a real thrill ride — though Holmes purists might disagree), and play with the dogs.

I also have studiously avoided the news because too much of it is focused on year-end wrap ups that do little more than regurgitate stories that we’ve read before.

I’ll hit the blog with some thoughts tomorrow — my annual musical wrap (what was it I was saying?), some thoughts on health care and more.

Right now, however, I’m going to bed.
