| I thought for a while that I was done forever with this weblog thingie. But I guess it turns out I just have too much of nothing to say and not enough people to say it to. So, as they say, old habits die hard and I need to start writing again, even if it is only sporadically.
But here's the rub, I'm leaving Xanga. It served its purpose while I was at the UA (I guess) but now I'm kind of tired of it. I'm tired of the format, I'm tired of reading other Xangas...hell, I'm sick of the word Xanga. So I copied Jen Lum and made myself a nifty little LiveJournal account. It was just time for a change. So, loyal and unidentified readers/stalkers, follow the link below and enjoy the annonymity of our one-way relationship.

| So I've decided to quit this online journal thing for now, partly because I'm sick of writing in it, but mostly because it's just kind of lame.
I'll probably bring it back eventually because I like putting my opinions, personalty quirks and wry sense of humor on display. Okay, that's not really the case. At all. But go ahead and check back periodically if you were one of the two or three people that actually read this thing. One never knows.

| Is it really 2006 already? I can't believe it's been a year since I wrote my review of all the fantastically sucky things that happened in 2004. Well, they say time passes faster the older you get, and I'm older now than I've ever been. Hello, 2006. And hello 23.
So I didn't ring in this new year in any sort of spectacular fashion (thus the 2:30am New Year's Day online journal entry). I was hoping to do something memorable with this particular holiday, but I went all flaky again this year, as usual. The only thing that really sets this one apart from the last one is that I got to go to work tonight, and to be honest, I kind of wish work had lasted until midnight because then I would have at least had an excuse for my lameness. I hope I get cooler someday.
How about this, then: instead of recapping all that 2005 crap, I start 2006 off with some warm and fuzzy well wishes:
-To all my intensely social, party-going friends (and this includes that one special someone...), I'm sorry I ditched you. The numerous invitations made me feel wanted, but the twenty-plus mile drive from and to my parents' house was enough to turn me off to the party scene yet again. Hope you all drank, drank and were merry enough to not notice I stayed home.
-To anyone who I happened to invite to spend New Year's Eve with me, and who turned me down: Sorry you all are as lame as I. Hopefully it's curable.
-To my neighbor whose chimney burned down last night: I hope your insurance takes care of it. It was really scary to wake up and see part of your house gone. I hope no one was hurt.
-To the mystery dog who ended up in our back yard tonight, I hope you get home without getting run over or eaten.
-To the illness that keeps going around at work: I hope you go away. I've got two more weeks there, I don't want you.
-To my family, I wish you many, many trips to San Francisco this year.
-To the newly re-opened Fox Theatre: Congrats. I hope you're as awesome as you're supposed to be. I hope you revitalize downtown Tucson like you're supposed to.
-To everyone displaced this year by natural disasters, may you continue seeing help and support in getting your lives back to normal. And who knows, you may even see the US take out a little revenge of its own on that pesky Mother Nature this year, starting with ANWR. Looks like it's wait and see and write to your Senator time.
-To Mark Prior: Here's to an injury-free season for a change, okay?
and finally...
-To Wally: I hope you've had a good time being my cat. I've loved having you. I have a feeling you won't be mine too much longer, so I wish you the best of luck with the rest of your life.
HAPPY NEW YEAR, 2006

| I'm really happy that Christmas shopping isn't getting me down this
year. I'm spending my money, I'm dealing with crowds...and I can
still find simple things to make me laugh out loud.
I was walking five miles through a crowded parking lot this afternoon
when I came across a car decked out in pro-Republican and W
propoganda. And hiding in the corner of the rear window was a
Star Wars sticker, the naval insignia for the Galactic Empire.
The evil Galactic Empire. So...draw your own conclusions, I guess.
go Republican

| Finally tonight I told someone a secret that I've been keeping from a lot of people. And I guess it's not a huge deal, but I don't really like keeping things from the people that I like. So just telling one person made me feel a lot better. And a lot less like a phony.
In other news, I'm counting down the hours till I hit the 4th Avenue Street Fair. Just in case this is my last one for a while, I plan on having a fantastic time. It'll be Friday afternoon, so it'll possibly (probably) be packed. Normally, large crowds and Anne just don't make for a nice combination. Still, if enough of my favorite elements are there, the hordes of people won't bother me too much. Falafel, air plants, virgin mojitos, The Flower Wizard, flavored honey...I don't even know how I'm going to get to sleep tonight. | | |
