[ 16 ] Voice, backdated to... closer to New Year's

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

What marks the 'new year' depends on where you're from, though I guess the Gregorian calendar never really wore out it's popularity, from the looks of it. Just a little past the change in sunlight at the solstice - and that's always been more of a 'new year' to me, even if it doesn't match the calendar - and we've got a month or two to go before the lunar new year, though I don't know the calculation off hand.

But as we can mostly agree on this one - here's to surviving another year despite the challenges, and may the coming one be better than the last.

Only the ones I don't know well enough, [is his quick rejoinder.

Then, after a moment's consideration.]

And my grandma.

Family matriarch, I take it?

We-ell... [There's a hint of a laugh in his voice.] Your words, not mine.

I think I can guess at the type. [Hi Jean]
