Who Doesn't Have a Year in Review?

ME! Why? Because I am un-cool. Who cares what I think anyway? But, to keep you entertained at this list-keeping time of year, here are some lists for you! If you want 'real' year end roundups, go here and here and to all the usual places.

Things I think about instead of "Best and Worst of 2005"
OK! Have I satisfied your list hunger? Great! What are you doing New Year's Eve? Scratch and I will be at Metro for the New Pornographers/Rogue Wave/The Ms show! Wow how cool is that! If you are there, say hi - I'm very approachable and nice! Who am I kidding? You come near me and I'll cut you I swear!

Now I feel guilty about not giving you a best/worst list. OK here I will try to do some sort of roundup of 2005's biggest local news stories and whatever:
Wow I feel super smart now! And you should too, just for reading that. OK I'm going to stop wasting your time and go do something else now! Like play Diner Dash.

Sentimental Hogwash

So, apparently I am not the only person who, around the holidays, feels an overwhelming urge to track down people they knew in high school. I'm just the only person who has more fun Googling and never actually sends out emails or calls the number listed.

Last week, I stayed up until probably 1AM Googling random people I went to grammar school, junior high, and high school with. I had some fun reading online diaries and what not, but didn't send any emails. On Christmas Day, I got an email from classmates.com, you know, that annoying website? Saying I had a message from a guy I went to HS with. It was a friend of his, using his account, that I was very good friends with in HS and who I haven't seen in about 10 years. How cool is that? So we are emailing each other everything that has happened to us in the last 10 years. Apparently, not one, but two people we went to HS with recently died. Scary stuff.

So, Doug, if you are looking at this blog, Hi! This is my boring 32 year old life. It's no 400 on a Saturday at midnight, but I'm OK with that.
