Damnit Another Year

I've finally succumbed and decided to get a blog. It's criminal how much easier updating this thing is than updating my old site. Seeing as I how I remember nothing of '04, I figure I better start taking notes on '05. It's my New Year's resolution to have no less than 7 personal revelations this year (thereby topping my last year's best of 3). I figure if I keep detailed notes on how I reach them, I can publish them in a book titled: The Investment Bank of the Soul -- Revelations Learned Through I-Banking. It'll be huge I tell you.

2005. Unbelievable. We're now closer to 2010 than to the 90's. Somebody shoot me plz.

As we reach this turn of the decade, it's time reflect on the past year. Unfortunately, because I spent most of the year at work, my memory is a bit fuzzy (or it might be the alcohol). But as best as I can recall, here are my pointless lists for 2004.

Movie That Most Spoke To Me:

• Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle

Most Questionable Moral Learned From A Movie:

• Blood baths in the name of vengeance are a-ok (courtesy of Kill Bill)

Favorite Drunken Moments:

• At The CoffeeHouse in NY when our training class made the waitress call our instructor to let him know that we would all be showing up an hour late because we were all wasted, and as a footnote, that I was a mess.
• At Maluken
• New Year's Eve... wait, can't really remember much...
• What the hell, all of them.

Top Three Locations For a Personal Revelation:

• At my cubicle at work at 2am.
• In my Toyota Camry coming back from Foxwoods at 2am.
• At the corner of Whitney and Grove in New Haven, CT at 5pm.

People Who Just Plain Suck:

• George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Karl Rove
• I didn't watch enough basketball to get really annoyed at Bob Costas this year, but he's on in spirit.
• People named Derek

Songs That Spoke To Me:

• Sunday Morning - Maroon 5
• Since U Been Gone - K. Clarkson (a latecomer)
• Come Clean - H. Duff

Most Outrageous Purchases:

• Suit at Brooks Brothers
• 50 inch LCD-Rear Projection Sony TV
• Contact Lenses (I think I only wore one pair total)

Favorite Quote From New Year's Party:

• "God damnit, another year!" - said by Phil when the clock struck 12.

So it's '05, another goddamn year. I feel emboldened. Hopeful even. Damnit, I need a drink.
