Booyah!

Yeah...that's right. I said booyah. I'm going to Vegas in February. I'm so dang excited. I have not been on a real vacation in years. Like literal years. Needless to say, I can't wait.

In other news, I have this weird habit of getting into sports during playoff time. Normally, I could care less about baseball, but for some reason I always watch all the playoff stuff. And now it's happening with football. It's such a strange thing. Part of could be how awesome the games look on my TV!

Well, anyway...this is a pretty pointless blog. I promise someday soon I'll write something with some substance.

So this is the new year...

...and I don't feel any different.

I love that Death Cab for Cutie song...and those lyrics just sum up this year. I had plans for this year. Somehow they got away from me. So here I am making plans in my head for 2008 wondering if I will be singing the same song next year at this time. I can only pray that I rise above.

'Wake up o sleeper. Rise from the dead and Christ will shine on you.'

So this is the New Year.
And I don't feel any different.
The clanking of crystal
Explosions off in the distance

So this is the New Year
And I have no resolutions
For self assigned penance
For problems with easy solutions

So everybody put your best suit or dress on
Let's make believe that we are wealthy for just this once
Lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
As thirty dialogues bleed into one

I wish the world was flat like the old days
Then i could travel just by folding a map
No more airplanes, or speedtrains, or freeways
There'd be no distance that can hold us back.
