It's New Year's Eve and I just found out.

Well, not really. But it did just dawn on me yesterday. And now it's starting to sink in. Nothing epic is sinking. Just the reality of having to attend a party I don't really want to go to tonight to appease the girlfriend.

But it's quite nice to have a girlfriend (especially this one) to appease so I'm not complaining in the least. Well, maybe just a little. It'd be weird if I didn't.

Got some New Year's Resolutions planned out.

1. Play music in a band (the inclusion of this on the list year after year is getting somewhat increasingly pathetic).

2. Go see a therapist (see above).

3. Never be late for work. I have almost no excuses.

4. Be a twenty-something. Still not 30.

I liked these so much more before I decided to share them.

At work right now. This is probably the first time in 3 months where I've had a chance to do something non-work related while not on a break. What a shitstorm of a fourth quarter.

The Celtics are in big trouble this year. Sheed is a bust. So is Daniels. Rondo can't hit a free throw if a game against the Clippers depended on it. KG has a glass knee. Perkins is the pout master. Ray-Ray way past his prime. Pierce is old as fuck. And Glen Davis is an idiot. Why didn't I see this coming? Or rather, why did I see it coming and choose to ignore it?

At least we crushed Orlando on Christmas.

Still haven't really had a Christmas yet with the family. Susan and Colin came over on the day and watched the game with me. But no real gift exchange stuff.

Birthday was pretty great. I gotta give it to Lindsay. She really went all out. Ice cream birthday cake made from scratch. A mountain of presents. Couldn't have made a guy feel better.

Kevin Koppes. Holy fucking shit. I think everyone's envious of the Poo Log. It's the first time I've seen people actually jealous over the fact that they didn't think of that.

Ben Torgerson. It was too bad we didn't get to spend as much time together as we had hoped. But it was well worth it. And now I have a pile of Dragonlance books to distract me from Game of Thrones. Well played Torgo. Well played.

Jae Choi, it was great to see her too and to have some real quality friend time. Bummer there were no Blazer home games during my visit. Did get to watch a game at a bar with Will Kapp and Ben. I think they hit it off. Though I'm sure both we're skeptical of the other prior to conversation.

Warren is awesome. Who isn't going to love a guy that plays in a badminton league with octogenarians?

Turns out Lindsay and I were at the same Blink 182 concert 9 years ago. I was 20. She was 13. I actually remember seeing her there. Weird.

Slightly creepy.

Half an hour left of work. Susan and Colin are coming over around 5 to test out my new Wii. Fucking shit I love that thing. My fat ass could use the movement too.

Joining a rec basketball league with Shawn in January. Trying to put together at least a ten man team. I won't mind getting outplayed, just don't want any injuries. Might have to get NBA 2k10. Looks like lots of moving around is required.

I tried to do this blog Ben-style. Let me know if I succeeded.
