Turkey Day Musings

Man, has it been a long time since my last post. I have been rather busy in my life this past 11 months. I bet you would like to know what I was doing. Well glad you asked.
I have been getting married, working and living the married life. So as you get ready to sit at the family table tomorrow and eat dead turkeys, cornbread dressings, and the like, I'll educate you on my happenings.
Since Jan. 1 2008:
I have become a better human about 10 times over.
I have become a husband and in reality a housecleaner/coffemaker/clothesfolderupper.
I have become less obsessed with sport.
I have eaten less and gained more weight.
I have cultured my brain.
I have slept less and become tired more.
I have tied more shoes and softened some.
I have screamed less and listened more.
I have given more and taken less.
I have wiped more and showered even more.
I have talked and even communicated.
I have written less and laughed.
I have loved and been loved more.

See, I have had a very interesting year. So without further ado, I am going to go sharpen my newly wedded knife set and go gut the turkey for tomorrow. Gobble Gobble!

Going out with bang not a whimper!

Well here we are, the eve of the New Year. A night of carousing and the like. A night of jubilantcy and good times. A night of lasts and the dawn of the new. Speaking of the new, what do you have lined up for your New Years? I usually do the resolution thing but man those don't work. I mean seriously. How many times can you say, "I'm gonna lose some weight!", or "I'm gonna be a better human!"

Well, I am here to say bring on 2008! I can take you. Hopefully this will be the year of Brian! I should be getting married!!! Yep, the year of Brian! The year of adulthood, the year of manhood, the year of Brian. I know, none of you guys care but 2008 will be great. There you go, a new slogan. 2008 will be great!

So tonight, I will be taking out (actually showcasing) my fiance, Christy. We will be running the streets, hitting up places, and seeing one and all. Now, of course caution will be taken. 2007 will not got out in a whimper. The roofs will be raised and the salt will be shaken. So as you bid adieu to 2007, hold fast your memories, and keep reaching for the stars.

P.S. I know my last 4 blogs have not been up to par like the past 50 someodd, but keep the faith.

P.S.2. 2008 will be great!
