New Slate

I realize that I am a little bit behind. The new year really isn't all that new anymore, but I still feel like I should do a little wrap up before moving on.

I, obviously, survived 2005. I really expected nothing less, but still there were moments that were tough to get through. And I am happy that it over (that isn't usually the case for me. I usually want the year to keep going because I feel that there are still things to be done), and I am happy to be starting a clean slate with a new year.

For the record (to officially close the book on last year):
*I had a court appearance regarding my role in finding a counterfeit ring. I never made it to the stand. I showed up, and they told me after a few minutes that he was pleading guilty and I wouldn't have to testify.
*Company Man has never called, never txt'd, and never dropped by, very much to my disappointment. But I am over it now, and very happy that I didn't have the opportunity to be get involved with a guy like him. But before I retire him let me just say this: I heard through the great vine that he no longer works for the company. He was fired a short time ago (what a way for him to start the new year). I wanted to give him a bit of sympathy, but being that I have no contact with him, I decided there was no need. Such is life, I suppose.
*I made it through Fall semester, thankfully. I did pretty good all in all, if I do say so myself.
*I got everything I wanted Christmas...that is great way to end the year.
*And last but not least, though I thought my New Year's celebrating would be somewhat stifled, boring and sad, it turned out being better than others.

Usually I give the new year a couple of weeks before I come up with resolutions. Get a feel for what the year will be like. But I have decided this year there will be no resolutions. Why should I set myself up to fail? Then again...it is always good to have goals... :) So I guess we will see...
