Last night I was lying in bed for about 2 hours trying to fall asleep. With this Tahoe trip and seperate skiing trip coming up, I'm getting a little OCD in preparations (please slap me if I get too obnoxious). I had about a million ideas and plans going through my head for every minute detail that sleep was a concept far far gone. Finally, when I did fall asleep I had a few funny dreams. One was about work.. everyone is supposed to be getting a new ID badge soon and I dreampt that I got a sneak peek at what they're going to look like. One fellow co-worker came out of the HR building with his 'new and improved' badge. It was a lunch-box sized clear plastic container, like something from the container store, belted around his waist, with a little container inside with what looked like a transistor radio (the actual 'badge). Haha, wtf?? Why am I dreaming about work badges??

Back by popular (self) demand, Top 5 memories of 2005:
5. Moving to Pacifica. I love living by the beach, I love the weather, I love having work and Isabella close by. It totally rocks. (the only thing that sucks is having friends so far away) :(

4. Florida vacation. Good times - Matt and I spent 7 full days with each other without killing one another. The safari visit was definitely the highlight of the trip.

3. Completing my first 50. Definitely the highlight of the year. Even the ride before, where I completed 40+ miles and pulled was a personal accomplishment, being the longest distance I had ever ridden. What's even better is that Isabella completed the ride season happy and healthy..

2. Hanging out with Friends/Family. Ok, there's no real 'event' for this (maybe Tahoe and Humboldt camping).. but every time I hang out with them it reminds me of how lucky I am to have such goofball people in my life that keep me laughing.

1. Matty. Was there any question? He's numero uno.. even if he won't see Brokeback Mountain with me. :)


And my New Year's resolutions:
5. Try at least one cigarette to see what the hoopla is about.

4. Eat whatever the hell I want, you only live life once.

3. Ride long, hard, fast.. I have the need for speed! (Isabella and/or Matt)

2. Don't call/email my friends. If they really wanted to contact me they'd call/email me, right?

1. Take Matt for granted. I think we've come to a point where we've been around each other enough to be comfortable.

(uh.. please note that I'm kidding here..) :)
