New Year, New Computer

In case you didn't know, it is now the year 2009. It's time for you to pause and reflect on the events of the past year...

Was it everything you hoped it would be? Did you get that promotion and raise at work that you so deserved or did you get laid off?



Or maybe you got promoted with no raise and still got laid off.

Did you get engaged to the man or woman of your dreams and begin planning the wedding to top all weddings, or did you have a long, drawn-out breakup that ripped you to shreds and totally altered your life?



Or maybe you ended one relationship and began a beautiful and flourishing new one.

Did you buy your dream home with the white picket fence and park a new hybrid in the driveway, or did the lease on your one bedroom apartment end and your car need a new timing belt, tires, heater and radio?



Or maybe you moved into your dream condo and just had a few repairs made to your reliable Honda.

The events of 2008 are different for all of us. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times... But what will 2009 hold for us?

I, for one, am very hopeful and excited about this year. I returned to the land I love so much, CO, and am now living in Denver.



While I have yet to find employment, I remain hopeful. Not only is Saturdays hiring new dancers, a new periodical for medicinal marijuana is in need of a copy editor. Dare I say both of these jobs were made for someone like men (dancer and writer, not stripper and medicinal person)? I have reunited with old friends and roommates, as well as have met many new and interesting people, many of which will be given code names and written about in the future. I attended my first NBA game - Nuggets vs. Pacers. Yes, that's right, the Pacers. My (once)favorite NBA team ever, which was formerly led by the greatest 3 point shooter in the history of points being shot that are more than one or two points, Reginald Wayne Miller.



He was no where in sight, the Pacers lost and Carmello Anthony broke his hand. Good game.

Oh, and, drum roll please... I finally have a computer! I can no longer feed you lame excuses for why I haven't posted anything lately. I'm connected and computing, so watch out.

Yep, 2009 has been pretty good so far. I awake each day, step outside, take a deep breath of the fresh mountain air, and thank God (Yes, God, not Jain. Jain did not create mountains. And maybe God didn't either, but I'm thanking him/her anyway) for making all of this possible.



Now, if Paul Rudd moves in next door life will be as it should be.



Happy 2009 readers.

Oh, and yes, I am staying home on a Saturday night to blog. Eat me.
