<\/a>I\u2019m going to leave my comments on this year at that. We all know how not fun it\u2019s been; you don\u2019t need me to recap it all for you.<\/p>\nBut, since this entire world needs a lot of good luck right about now, in sooo many areas, I\u2019m going to remind you all of the two good luck rituals we should all do tonight into tomorrow. Maybe if all<\/em> of us do both<\/em> of them this year, it will work globally.<\/p>\n I do the first one, which I call \u201cRabbit,\u201d at the end of every<\/em> month and the beginning of the new one, but I always feel like it\u2019s particularly potent on New Year\u2019s Eve and New Year\u2019s Day. There are two ways to do it, and I, of course, do both.<\/p>\n First is the specific<\/em> wish. This is how to do it: on the last night of the month, as you drift-off to sleep, concentrate on the one wish<\/em> you want to come true more than anything else. Keep it in your mind as your last thought of the month. And don\u2019t talk. (Duh.) In the morning, the first thing you must say is \u201cRabbit.\u201d<\/p>\n If you\u2019re worried that you won\u2019t remember to do it, with so much going on in our minds and souls right now, just put a little sign by your clock or phone of whatever else will be the first thing you\u2019ll see when you wake-up, (perhaps your partner\u2019s forehead?,) to remind yourself. I also put a little stuffed rabbit on my bedside table, not just for the visual reminder but because he\u2019s adorbs.<\/p>\n And here\u2019s my special New Year\u2019s Day ritual, which brings good luck for the entire year! (I\u2019m telling you now<\/em> so that you\u2019ll be prepared. And also because I\u2019m taking tomorrow off, of course!) We all<\/em> need to do it this year. It\u2019s eating black-eyed peas<\/em> on January 1. The form of them is not important–canned, frozen, fresh, whatever; they all work the same. The quantity isn\u2019t important, either, which I\u2019m sure my fellow finicky eaters will be happy to hear, (because the legumes are far from delicious.) But you do<\/em> have to eat at least a few, in any<\/em> preparation. I just heat them up in the microwave, throw some seasoned salt on them, and choke down about half a cup of those suckers. It\u2019s once a year–if I<\/em> can stand them, I\u2019m sure everyone<\/em> can!<\/p>\n<\/a>The other way is for good luck that entire<\/em> new month. And it doesn\u2019t matter if you made that wish the night before or not. When you wake-up on the first day of the new month, kind-of pop off the end of the bed, (I just scotch down to the end with my butt, and gently propel myself off,) while saying \u201cRabbit\u201d three times. (I\u2019ve heard it as one, two, or three times, so I always do three, to cover all bases. Why not?)<\/p>\n
