Happy New Year!!!!!

Ok, it’s been the new year for a while, but I’ve been really really busy as of late. Seriously, most of my personal free time has been taken up by a couple of extremely important things; Corinne (my de-lovely girlfriend) and side work (work, work, work, hello boys I miss you!). I tried to post a few times here and there, but things just got in the way, but in a good way.

You’ll notice that I am posting on a weekday which only means that it is currently my lunch break. Yea, gainful employment. Wheee.

BTW, before I forget, I am also posting because Lisa has been making fun of me as of late and I need to mention her here by name so that she will quit complaining about my lack of postings, at least for a few more days when she gets bored at work and decides to rattle my cage again.

heh heh

As the title suggests, things have been quite excellent as of late. The whole wonderfully fantastic girlfriend thing aside (sorry darling), the rest of my life is cruising along too. To do a quick recap:

1. I am starting to sing with Northbrook again (*snaps* for the best chorus in the Illinois District and most of the BHS!; ok, so I liked Legally Blonde 2; sue me!)
2. My dear friend Mark up and got himself engaged last weekend – from what I understand he was completely sober…as was Penny (*snaps* for Mark and Penny…errr…Penny and Mark!)
3. My dear friend Quang and I are working away on some neat upcoming ideas (*snaps* for the Q-Man)
4. I got my new XM Satellite radio as a Christmas present from my brother Dennis and his wife Kimberlee and my parents (*snaps* for family that understands that I am a technology whore)
5. My dear friend Dr. David Chin Evans (see his blog on the left) and I are starting to collaborate on a psychology-technology project (*snaps* for Doc Dave and his social psychology web visions)
6. My dear friend Steve apparently really kicks arse at Clue, the board game (*snaps* for Steve and his arse kicking ways)
7. My dear friend Lisa ridiculed me enough to inspire me to post (*snaps* for Lisa and her sometimes harassing personality)

There are probably more things that deserve *snaps* but my lunch break will be over in a little while.

Lest I forget, today’s quiz is “What Kind Of Kisser Are You”

You’re a Romantic Kisser

For you, kissing is all about feeling the romance You love to kiss under the stars or by the sea The perfect kiss involves the perfect mood It’s pretty common for kisses to sweep you off your feet

Wow, how interesting that these blog things are sometimes absolutely correct! Yes, I am a romantic kisser. I freely admit that and without any sort of shame or embarrassment. I don’t need to project a self-aggrandizing macho image. I think a real measure of a man is more of how well he can love and how wonderful the other person feels because of him. In that respect I am extremely comfortable with myself.

Yea…

Anyway, although I’ve never seen Brigadoon, I still like the song I referenced in the title as it is especially apropos for the moment.

“All the music of life seems to be (to be)
Like a bell that is ringing for me,
And from the way that I feel,
When the bell starts to peal,
I would swear I was falling,
I could swear I was falling,
It’s almost like…”

Be seeing you…
