Happy New Year

I suppose you might be wondering where I've been the past few days. If you guessed enjoying some drunken revelry and time off, you are unfortunately wrong. I took this pic at the stroke of midnight last night to show you what I was up to. At home with only my friend Johnnie Walker there to celebrate with. I was too sore, tired, and grumpy to brave the bars last night.

It's been a helluva last few months. I travel and work so much that I no longer feel at home while I'm at home. I don't even buy groceries when I'm home since I'm not home long enough to really do any cooking. I've been working an amazing amount trying to get everything set up before I leave the company I'm at right now. I haven't even started looking for a new car and I doubt that I'll be getting another job that provides me with a company vehicle.

I've spent a good chunk of today working. I leave for Nebraska in the morning and I still need to get a few things in order so I can actually relax a little while I'm on the road. Laundry and packing is done, paperwork is almost done, and all I need to do is to program a few label routines before I can go to sleep. I need to book the hotel too, but that doesn't take long.

I'm taking a day off in a way this week. I'll be visiting the ex-gf in Missouri on my way back from Nebraska which hopefully will be a relaxing time. I'm trying not to get my hopes up just in case, however. I know my luck all too well.

Anyway, I hope everyone had a blast on their New Years. I know it sounds silly after I just dumped a load of depressed thoughts on y'all, but no matter what jealous thoughts I get, I still hope the best for the awesome people out there who read me on a regular basis. Hopefully things will only get better and better for all of us this new year!

Happy New Year, Erik. Let's hope 2006 is even a little better than '05. Good luck in Missouri.

Good to see you are drinking good booze at least.

Hopefully the visit to the ex-gf will provide you with one of the N's that you need...you can nap and get the narcotics when you get home.

Happy New Year!

I think I'll need nookie and narcotics in large doses in order to get some sleep right now.

Thanks all for the well wishes :)
