I said my goodbyes to 2005 with my bestest girls in thee whole wide world and said hello in fine fashion (drunk and dancing) to 2006.

While 2005 had some wonderful up's...the tail end of it was full of down's, down's I am happy to leave in 2005. I feel quite accomplished...did lots of wonderful and important (even if only to myself) this year...completed a year and a half of grad school (delicious hell on earth), found some girls (and a boy who's really a girl) that I can stick with through thick and think, lost a shit ton of weight for the first time in YEARS, and had a boy who has meant the world to me (and prolly always will) despite how things ended. I wish I could find words accurate enough to tell of these people in my life just what they mean to me and how they've had such an impact on who I am...alas, I'm not as eloquent with words as some...Definately a year of learning....hopefully this year will lead to growing from the learning.

I'm looking forward to a much better year with people I love, doing the things I want to do...enjoying the rest of 25 and trying very very hard to embrace 26. Shit. I can't believe I just typed that. Fuck.

I think my gal pal Kinky V should have pics up soon, so as soon as she does you will see how POA we were last night. SOOOOO POA in fact, that a boy hit on me...like for real. I almost died. I felt like I was in 5th grade again. Totally not the kind of guy I usually like, but who knows...

My stomach is still fucked, my mouth is still in pain...but my soul is feeling renewed. I'm gonna pull myself outta this funk kickin and screamin....

Love to all of my friends.....do the things you want to do, now is the chance. tell people the people in your life you love them, now is the chance. don't let anything pass you by....this is just too good.
