I had to make something up to get rid of 2025! Let's hope that 2026 is much better!
You can consider this part 2 of the Boxing Day caption I posted a few days ago. If you didn't read it, DO SO NOW! Just a quickie caption with the Dee as dominatrix from that last caption .. I was still feeling that character, so why not lean into it for more blog content?
Some back story to the Dee Mentia persona on the Haven .. I'm a bit of a witchy big tiddy goth type who is very old, mostly because every year I make sure my profile has me listed as being 666 years old. I thought that that little detail would work well with this one, and is a play on the whole, "New Year's baby on January 1 and then to an old man on December 31" rinse and repeat aspect of the holiday.
But of course, being in that body, I might decide to stay in in longer if I can. Of course, by the end of the year, that form will be much debauched and worn out, so .. let's get another donor lady for me to inhabit!

So, as I've done many times in the past, here is something I got from Helena and will share with you again. Along with Kaaren, Helena is another person that is no longer with us, that I miss immensely.
Over here we have a seasons greeting, "Zalig uiteinde" meaning as much as a blissful ending of the year, combined with a happy new year. I can't recall ever hearing or reading of a similar greeting in English, so to a good Dutch custom: A blissful ending of the year, and a happy new year.
And to a New Year's posting I did at the end of 2018, Helena commented:
I raise my glass to this cap and the New Year. It always raises my spirits when I know I touched someone on some way, even if it is with something small.
For each and every visitor, commenter, and fellow captioner, once again .. I wish you "Zalig uiteinde!!"
Side note: Back when I was young, the NYE songs were shitty and/or played out. Like the Barry Manilow and Dan Fogelberg songs that Dick Clark would keep inviting back on his Rocking New Year's Eve show. Even a great song like Celebration" by Kool and the Gang has gotten overplayed.
I'm so glad we have P!ink around to show us how it's done! She was one of my forever person's favorite artists and anytime I can think about her driving down the road just singing along to one of her songs is a great day!
So raise your glass if you are wrong .. In all the right ways.
All my underdogs .. We will never be never be,
anything but loud ..And nitty gritty dirty little freaks.
Won't you come on and come on and raise your glass.
Just come on and come on and raise your glass.
