The Beginning

I don't remember the last time I've actually kept up with a journal, or a blog for that matter.  I create a consistent habit of writing entries, and eventually let them fade away into the depths of the internet.  I must admit, I thoroughly enjoy reading things that I've written years ago that have long slipped my mind.  Those old stories, quotes, pictures, and everything else I thought to be inspiring at the time bring me back to the exact moment I wrote about them.  For that exact reason, I'm adding yet one more online outlet to my life.  Here it goes...

Christmas has been very quiet this year.  With only 10 minutes left, my day has been spent with both of my grandparents and my dog.  I have absolutely no complaints.  In fact, this may have been my best Christmas yet.  Most of the gifts I received were travel related.  My grandparents also helped me out enormously with helping fund for my trip.  I don't think I'd be able to make the entire thing happen if it weren't for their generosity and support.  I'm extremely lucky to have a family like mine.

Speaking of gifts, one of my absolute favorite things I've ever received came from a friend at work.  He has a little series known as Evil Ice Cream (www.evilicecream.com) that I fell in love with as soon as I discovered it.  I've purchased all of the little figures he and his wife have released, and have been impatiently anticipating the missing piece known as Mean Bean, and angry little scoop of vanilla ice cream.  Darth surprised me on Tuesday with my personal little Mean Bean.  They've yet to put these in production, but I suggest investing in the little guy when they do.  He's adorable.




Seeing that I'm barely packed, have a migraine, and have a million other things to do tomorrow before I hit the airport I'm going to call this the end of my first entry.  If you're interested in reading about my travels within the next few weeks, or adventures to follow after I'm going to make a strong attempt to keep this current.  Sayonara!
