• New Year

  Date: 2010.01.10 | Category: Uncategorized | Response: 1

  The new year is upon us. It has descended without warning. Well, ok, maybe I knew it was coming.

  What has the new year brought? Realizations, random thoughts:

  1. I’ve been drinking too much and would really love to stop waking up hungover.
  2. I am not really that great of a person when drunk.
  3. I’ve lived in a house for 4 years or more without making it my home.
  4. When it’s cold outside and you have high performance summer tires you spin them often.
  5. Changing disc brakes is ridiculously easy.
  6. Nothing motivates a person quite like an internal aspiration made suddenly real by external scrutiny (or even the possibility of it).

  So what does all of this really mean?

  I changed the brakes on the Jeep, but before doing so I had to drive the Z around in the cold.

  I’ve been drunk, and an asshole, a lot lately.

  I’m buying a bedroom set and a new bed to make my room more livable and less like a college dorm room.

  I’ve strongly considered finally hanging my degree on the wall and cleaning / organizing my room. What do you mean “separate piles” isn’t an organizational scheme?

  How is it that 4 years or more go by and things have remained largely unchanged? The only things that have been new in my life are vehicles. We’ll see how the rest of the year goes. It promises to be eventful.
