When I wake up, yeah I know I’m gonna be, I’m gonna be the man who resolves to rearrange my life based on the beginning of a new calendar year. Everyone wants to start something on new years. A new beginning. But why wait? Well because no one ever gets around to all the things they want to do so there’s always lots of things waiting on the backburners, and then eventually New Years rolls around, and they have a bunch of things they can claim they will accomplish with a tinge more veracity than when they idly think there’s something else they should be doing between flipping channels. Call it inevitability. But if ya need that artificial instigator that’ll make you go out, turn your life around, and be a better person, who am I to complain? Whatever help you can get is valuable help. I don’t have any new years resolutions, but more than any other, the beginning of this year seems like it could be a new start for me. I’m single. I have ambitions. I have opportunities. And I’m at a point in my life where I start seriously shaping my future. 2003 was about that in a big way, too I suppose (choosing universities etc..) but now the shit is getting closer to the fan. But all the things I’m planning on doing won’t be affected by a change in the year and pulling out a new calendar and adjusting to dating things with ’04′ instead of ’03′.
Had a fun party at Caleb’s last night. Big crowd, and some nice sing-alongs; I just wish I’d found out sooner that my brother would have been willing to DJ there. But nonetheless he’s pre-emptively booked for the next gathering with a big enough venue. That would be sweet, yo.
And now back to waiting for my first non-spam e-mail of the new-year.
