A new year update... subtitled: My blog's not dead... yet

New year resolutions are for over-achievers, setters of unrealistic goals, and chronic procrastinators... Mine are listed below:

1. Look better naked (this is actually a request by my wife, but being a good husband i moved it to the top of the list)

2. Update this very blog more often (random mobile uploads accompanied by one-liners DO count)
3. Drink less alcohol (not by volume but by frequency, if the frequency is less and the volume comes out the same... well... maybe that'll make the list for 2010)

4. Keep in better contact with close, yet distant friends (having said friends read this blog DOES count)

5. WIN money in Vegas this year, rather going for a threepeat of the last few visits (Sorry
Pat Riley, I'm not paying you any royalties)

6. Attend at least 5 regular season Oklahoma State Football games - FOR FREE (another blog on this coming soon)

7. Acheive World Peace...

8. See a Flying Squirrell fly (in real life, not on TV)

Ok, some were serious and some were for grins... you decide which are which...

As far as 2009 so far, well, I can say that it has been good me and mine. My wife recently got a promotion in a time when others are losing their jobs. I recently went permant at the company where I was contracting for the past year... yeah health benefits, boo pay cut...

Last year, I lost approximately 45 "el bees" and this year i have gained 15 of it back, and then lost 10 of it again... my closest friends refer to me as the "incredible shrinking, growing, shrinking man" (actually, no they don't. that would just be silly)

It has been 4 months since my last blog post... #2 above should take care of these giant gaps of time... and to end this one i would like to share the logo i created for my Fantasy Football Team this past NFL season:



My team was named either (depending on the League) "The Raging Mooseknuckles" or "The Mooseknuckles of Rage"...

Be Proud Mom, Be Proud!
