2007 was a pretty big year full of changes and lots of things accomplished – and some things not quite accomplished.

But the good thing is that I’m still alive and kicking to roll unfinished things over into the next year.

Overall, it was a pretty good year. I made some great new friends, ran a marathon, and packed up my stuff and moved away from Washington D.C.

I’m not really one to make lots of new years resolutions. I’ve always figured it was just better to start on any self-improvement, or lifetime goals right now. Why wait until a new year?

But there are things I’d like to do. I’d like to maintain better, closer contact with all my friends who have been great to me all my life. I’d like to make better use of my time and talents to contribute towards the world, making the world a better place than it was yesterday.

So how does one set about to doing that? I don’t know yet – so many unknowns coming up. The most immediate one being a 4,000 mile road trip. The Great Road Trip, I call it.

As good 2007 was, I fully intend to make 2008 a even better year.

So to everyone out there who’s still reading my blog. Thank you all, and keep watching this channel.

Watching Dick Clark narrate the 2008 countdown, I came to the conclusion that he’s been injected with so many artifical preservatives that he’ll live for another thousand years.

Happy New Year to you all!
