Weekend Update (and so much more)

So it's been a while. Work's been busy and the mountain's been calling my name. Christmas was good. Not the same of course, but still had a good time. I rang in the New Year and ended my Birthday with my annual ode to the porcelain god.

Penn State went to the Orange Bowl and won in a gruesome triple overtime. I got to watch the game with a fellow PennStater which is few and hard to find in this area. A few drunk phone calls were exchanged with several of my friends who were actually in Miami. Jealous? Sure. But I live in Vail.

I'm pretty ready for a trip back East. If anything, to see some familiar faces and be near a real city again. The High Country is great, but it gets a little "red-necky" for me sometimes. I might have a couple friends come out in the next month or two which would be wicked cool. (Shout out to the peeps in Boston)

My New Years Resolution is to get my ass in gear and apply to a damn school next year. My motivation: I can't work at a Brewery for the rest of my life. And I don't like my job opportunities based on the degree I have. Back East, farther West, somewhere in the middle, who knows? But it will be somewhere. I found I enjoy school, even though I'm not the most stellar student. But a year of nothing has made me appreciate the value of education.

Pictured is me on New Years, pre-porcelain-bus-driving. I'm thinking of using it as my photo for grad apps.
