At the beginning of the year, I flirted with the idea 
of selling some of my long position.
And again in October.
Almost bought gold.
Nearly allowed my brother-in-law to use my new car.
Immediately filled out my election mail-in ballot 
but buried it under other paper work and 
almost forgot to mail it.
I looked at… smelled… but almost didn’t taste tapenade.
Came this close to forgetting to buy a wedding anniversary card.
Almost fell for a click-bait headline in Politico.
Caught myself before believing that President Obama 
had made an equitable deal with the totalitarian Castros.
Early in the season, I came close to selling some Bronco’s 
playoff tickets.
Nearly forgot that my street is more important to me than Wall Street.
