we won't be back before it's new year's day - take me out tonight (meow... ha!)

this is my last post of 2007. i would love to sit and reflect on the year, maybe take some of those silly surveys that everyone always posts on blogs and give you lots of useless information about my life in the 07. but i don't have time. i'm going to pittsburgh to spend the day/night with my friend shara, her husband joe, and some of his friends that i don't know. shara's very glad that i'm coming, and i'm glad too. it will be good to have a girlfriend to catch up with and talk to... i've been lacking that the past couple weeks, and it's been a really bad thing... no one to spill all the stuff about guys to, so i've been holding it all in, and i'm about ready to explode.
one thing i always think about on new years eve is the stereotypical midnight kiss. who decided that should be a tradition? and why? i have never been kissed on new year's eve, so i can't help thinking about it. is it really any more exciting than kissing at any other time? i hate that this is in my mind, but i'm a hopeless romantic, so there it is. maybe in 5 (million) years i'll find out.
anyway, i'm looking forward to 2008. i think it has a lot of potential to be the greatest year yet. celebrating the new year is so cool... to acknowledge that you get a new start, a chance to change, turn over a new leaf. granted, you could have that any time you wanted, but to be offered it like this, is kind of nice. i don't usually make new years resolutions because i know myself and know i wouldn't keep them. but it's time for some changes in my life. it's time to let go of some things, time to pick up others, and embrace life instead of letting it pass me by. ready? set. (deep breath) go.
