Happy New Year
by Your Diva, Robin Pastorio-Newman

Your Darling, Your Diva, Your One True Love is full of questions. For instance...
 
How do the holidays turn an ordinarily tidy apartment into a festive hovel?
 
Why do complete strangers feel the need to confess their credit scores to us as we fold our laundry?
 
Why hasn't Osama bin Laden's kidney machine-in-a-cave turned up on GPS?
 
We're all full of questions on New Year's Eve. Will next year bring us prosperity? Will celebrities quit kissing to titillate us? Can we finally tool around town on that lipstick red Vespa we crave but can't yet afford?
 
In any case, the promise of a new day and a cleaner slate lies before us. Happy New Year!
