Happy New Year, Campers
I really don’t make New Year’s Resolutions. Never have. I set goals all the time that I try to reach so being that it’s a new year, I guess I fall into the category of one of those people that always has something in front of them, be it personal or professionally. Who needs a New Year’s Resolution?
I’m stressed out about keeping goals year round
This year has been rough. There were terrible times at work in the spring due to some employee discontent that got personal (against me, unfortunately) and then again when I returned to work after the hystie. SQ’s dad and grandmother died within months of each other, and she needed care. Now, campers, try taking care of someone that refuses to talk about anything. It ain’t easy.
I also had the Utero Out Tour 2006 which wasn’t so bad. I woke up one morning and just felt better. And I felt more optimistic that it was a good move because I was really sick. Sicker than I even knew. So, I have that going for me and it is of the good.
I met some great people. In the “real” world and in the blogosphere. I hope those relationships continue to grow.
I’ve made peace with the Powers That Be and with Big Daddy and Hello Nurse. This is also of the good. I’m hoping to continue the content I feel within myself and these folks.
I realized that I can do what ever the hell I want to as long as I don’t hurt anybody else. This is the biggest life lesson I’ve ever had the pleasure of learning. I really used to not be this way.
What do I want in 2007?
More independence, new adventures, fine wine with my friends and a chance to laugh at all the shit stuff that life throws at me.
You see, I don’t need very much in all honesty. But I want plenty and these things aren’t materialistic (except maybe a sexy Porshe. I always thought I’d look great in a Porshe.)
These things are tangible and they include what I already have.
So Happy New Year. Don’t get arrested, don’t take off your clothes around toothless people or barf on your boss because it is not a good way to start out a new year. And remember to eat the ham hocks, black-eyed peas and greens for
good luck tomorrow to keep the karma going.
Going to listen to my Affordable Art CD by Steve Goodman now. The song “Vegamatic” almost got me fired from my former career in radio. It was actually the song I was playing (on vinyl, mind you) when I met Squirrel Girl in 1985.
If you’ve heard it, you know what I’m talking about. And, yeah, I almost got canned. But I didn’t.
Such is the life of newscoma.
Let’s see if I can leave a comment
I do hope you have a fun evening of goofiness, silliness, and fun! Happy New Year backatcha!
I love your new home! Looks spicy and sophisticated just like it’s owner. I think you should get a hot porshe too.
Here’s wishing you get the year you surely deserve,, loving and kind and fun, as you are to those around you!
The happiest and healthiest of new years to you and yours, sweetheart. Loving the new site; clean and classy.
Just think — we are beginning a year in which we will have NO MORE VISITS DOWN THAT STORE AISLE. EVER AGAIN. IN OUR LIVES. It’s a joy few can understand.
What a year that was. And now onward & upward..
Your blog always makes me smile.
Happy New Year!
Maybe that’s why my luck is always so shitty. I can’t stand turnip greens nor ham hocks and thus have never eaten them on New Year’s Day. Black-eyed peas are OK tho.
Happy New Year, sweetie!
Love the new site and new look. I feel like I should get you a housewarming gift! Congratulations!
Also, groovy and sexy?! You flatter me! I love it!

Happy New Year to you too! It was great to have you guys at the house last night. We’ll have to do that more often…minus the 5am bedtime. I can’t hang with that very often! Love the new blog…looks great!
Oh Steph, neither can I. But the conversation and Johnny Cash Marathon was awesome.
Thanks John on the compliment.
Lynnster, I choked down the greens. I need all the luck I can get.
Grandefille, Happy New Year to you as well. You made me laugh, no more going down “that” aisle ever again.
Yeah for us.
The more I look at your new ‘digs’, the more I’m impressed. You finally have a site that is almost equal to your awesome talent.
I resolve to hang out with you and Steph more in the coming year!
Happy New Year, and may the wind be at your back..(o:
