3. Build my cab. Starting TOMOROW!!! Woo hoo.  ;D

1. I dropped 22 pounds (Not my wedding weight, but a darned good start).
2. Built my cab.

Still can't skate for crap. Sure can fall good though.

1) Gain enough weight to be buried in a piano crate.
2) I'm pretty sure #1 will take up most of my time.

I failed miserably. Time to get serious about it.
I've got a fever...

Falling is easy.  Getting up is hard.

Skating while fat is harder than getting up.

Not fat...Just Big Boned.

Actually, just tall and broad. I scare the hell out of the kids at the skate park. No one wants to get smushed by a 6-3 "old guy"

Well, I cant say "quit smoking" cause its been about a month and a half since I stopped (BTW this Firefox extension is awesome for those trying to quit)

I guess I'll say travel. I want to travel more while I'm in Europe. I've only got a few months left so I want to make sure I hit the places I haven been to yet.

Well, I did do a little a bit more travelling before I left Europe; hit Amsterdam for the last time and a few other places. When I got to the Pacific though, the first spot I hit was Australia (for 9 days). Good times. Now I'm looking to the Spring and whether I'm gonna try to see Japan, New Zealand, or the Phillipines...

You should see if you can get your case published in a medical journal.  I heard you look like you've got double the bones of normal people ;)

I succeeded with my resolution.  I've been shiny this whole year ;D

I don't do the resolutions.  I wanted to lose some weight this year.  I waited until November to start ;D  I suppose I could resolve to lose some more, but why put that kind of pressure on myself? 

Remember kids, set your goals and expectations low.  It makes them easier to reach!

I live by this code:
be an underachiever - that way when you do overachieve, it is that much more impressive.

Not really sure what I plan to get out of 2006, but here it goes:


1) Finish both my upright and cocktail cabinets.

2) Continue to succeed in school with high grades.

3) Find ways to advance in my current job.



well my projects are still not yet done and I've added restoring a Crystal Castles to the list

Have a 3.95 GPA and have 6 more classes to go so I should get my associates at the end of the summer semester...

Still working the same job, no advancement yet although with how I'm succeeding  academically they are watching me closely....

so I'm going to continue on my same resolutions for next year....
