End of the Year Review

I've decided that I'm going to quit saying how shitty the year was every new years. After all, I've only got myself to blame if I had a shitty year, so I should look ahead towards the new. Besides, in 2007 I quit smoking! That is huge and certainly makes 07 a year to remember. Here are some other great things from this year.

• I got another tattoo... and it's Boss Hog cool.
• I got serenaded at Country Buffet. How many people can say that?
• I reconnected with my brother after 25 years
• I went to a Bronco game
• Bon Jovi had a new album come out

In fact a lot of cool things happened this year. It was a tough year for some of my friends who lost members of their family. However, those we love and miss are happy now, and will be with us always. So, I really am optimistic for 2008. For the first time, I think that I won't be sad at midnight because I'm thinking about what should have been. Instead, I'm going to start next year by thinking about what is and what could be. I wish all of you the same. I hope you are able to start the new year with a sense of excitement and hope. Happy New Year to all of you. Be safe and have fun.

Merry Christmas

Really?

I found this while driving around looking at Christmas lights... and I had to stop my car and take a picture to share with you. Now, for you to truly appreciate this I need to give you an idea of the size of it. I was about 8 feet high and about 20 feet long. There was literally scaffolding behind this lit up monstrosity. SCAFFOLDING! Where do you find something like this? Imagine the people across the street on the day they were setting this up. : O lol Those poor neighbors. Now...don't get me wrong. It's not the fact that the "decoration" is religious in nature that bothers me, after all "Jesus is the reason for the season" lol. However, I would think that even for a Christian "Happy Birthday Jesus" is a pretty stupid thing to say. Happy Birthday?! Really? It's not exactly like Jesus' Super Sweet 16!! Next fourth of July I'm getting one that says "Happy Birthday America!" Good times. I hope to bring you more of my favorite Christmas home decorations soon. Including... my neighborhoods "Griswold" family. I don't know if I can get all of it into one picture though... but I'll try. Till then, Happy Birthday Jesus!
