Maybe it's because it's the night of Chinese New Year tonight and we're welcoming in the Year of the Horse and many around the place are getting all excited.
I met up with my Taiwanese next-door neighbours as I was heading out for a swim with Jay.
"Kung Hei Fat Choi," I said.
"Happy new year to you. I thought you spoke no Chinese." my neighbour said.
"This and 'ni how' is as far as it goes. It's better than nothing."
"It's a start."
So we're going into the Year of the Horse. Allegedly this means, according to AI, "The 2026 Year of the Fire Horse (beginning Feb 17, 2026) symbolizes a period of intense energy, rapid movement, and major transformations. Representing speed, courage, and freedom, this year encourages bold action, innovation, and breaking free from limitations, though it may also bring restlessness and impulsivity."
Does this mean there's going to be a revolution?
Interesting.
Me, I was born in the Year of the Monkey. Again, according to AI, this represents,"The Year of the Monkey in the Chinese zodiac symbolizes intelligence, wit, agility, and curiosity. People born in this year are considered clever, mischievous, and resourceful problem-solvers. It is a time often associated with innovation,, rapid change, and, sometimes, unpredictability.
I find all of this stuff fascinating.
It might also be the reason this song has been swilling around in my head all day.
Not much of a blog today. I've been making videos for work today. I need to get away from the screen for a bit as I've got another day of this tomorrow.
