Am I the only one who thinks this has been a really long year? Granted it has only been a week, but wow, things escalated quickly. I have a conspiracy theory that I would like to share since that seems to be super trendy right now. My theory is that 2021 is really 2020. Hear me out. 2020 murdered 2021 before the strike of midnight on December 31st and is masquerading as the new year. Of course, we could all buy into the thought that 2021 is trying to upstage 2020 asking him to hold his beer, but I have heard 2021 doesn’t like beer, so that it a bit farfetched.

This theory isn’t without warrant. Did anyone actually see 2020 leave? Did anyone observe 2021 arrive? See, the reality is that I had really, really low expectations of this particular year. I feel like it might be better served if we simply call it 2020 Part Two. It isn’t really fair that we are dumping our expectations on this unsuspecting new year. I feel like a new year celebrations might be warranted around the halfway point. That gives us six months to get our shit together. Just a thought.

I know that we have A LOT of work to do. We are strong and resilient. Yes, our country seems a bit unhinged at this moment, Sure, it seems like a reality show gone wrong, but sometimes you have to embrace the discomfort before you find the peace. We’ll get there. It will take some time, but I have no doubt that we will survive and even be better for it. In the meantime, the FBI is currently looking for 2020 as a person of interest in the mayhem that continues to plague us. If you have any information, please call the anonymous tip line.
