Well, we made it. It’s 2005, y’all. Congratulations. Betcha thought we wouldn’t make it, did ya? It’s been a hectic year for the world, to say the least. Bush got reelected, can you believe it? The poor people of Southeast Asia got a new meaning for the expression “Surf’s up!” Elections in Ukrania seem to be heading the nation into brand new democratic territory.

Elections in my country seem to be heading it into brand new dictatorial country. Britney, Janet, Colin… lotta names in showbiz came and went. Me? I discovered blogging. And I’m loving it.

Some people take this time to evaluate their performance in the year and vow to make amends. That’s nice, but c’mon, it’s really b.s. Evaluate what you do every day, I say. Plan ahead, yes, but don’t take this time to reflect on the couldave, wouldave and shouldave. That’s gone, baby. Time to look ahead. You’ve got 365 days to make good on every promise you made and didn’t keep. You got 12 months of ways you can improve your life, your close ones’ lives and the world’s life. And you got a whole year to plan what you’re gonna be proud of on December 31, 2005. For God’s sake, have a great New Year. May God help you on whatever it is you’re planning to do. And be good at it. See ya in 2005.

Thanks for peeking into my Mind…
