Happy New Year

Angela and I are spending a quiet New Year’s Eve at home, which is just fine with me, being with her is the only place in the world I would choose to be on any special occasion.

As we look back at the tragedies and triumphs of 2004, both personal and world-wide, I hope we can all resolve to learn to make healthy decisions and enjoy all the little things life has to offer in 2005.

  • The One Constant

    I wrote this in an email the other day and after reading it again in the reply something about it struck me. I didn’t mean for it to be a deep philosophical statement, but it sort of is. (I’m blaming the lack of caffeine). “The one constant in life is change” I realized in reading…

    Andy left a comment here the other day, and earlier this week I spotted a post on his blog where he linked here. (It’s a small part of a long post..) In it he says this about this site and myself: Well, this guy has been around longer than me, has quite a few links…

  • Unsafe

    I went to bed last night, and woke up this morning with a very strange feeling. It’s a feeling I haven’t had in a long time but that I know all too well. I feel very unsafe. No, it’s not war, terrorism or anything like that. Those things may make me feel unsafe in one…
