First draft of first short story of the year!

Go, me! I think I had this story bubbling in me while I was finishing up the novel--which, dammit, still needs a name. Argh! It's stylistically odd, but my friend Misha gave it a thumbs up so it's headed off to crit group.

At any rate, I think this is an auspicious start to the year.
