Midnight
All due respect to Garfield and The Bangles, but I love Mondays. I love paying off my credit card and running my washer’s self-clean cycle the first day of every month. Despite not really (officially) planning any resolutions or putting on a fancy dress and attending a sparkling party, I love New Year’s. Ironically, I am not a morning person—but one could argue that a new day always, not just at New Year’s, begins at midnight, when I am habitually still awake.
