As we proceed into the year 2009, I have nothing remotely important to say. No rants, no raves, no social work ramblings, no nifty bible scriptures, no transparent confessions. Nada.
Wait, wait, wait. Methinks that an update about Get a Date in 2008 is in order. How could I forget?! Today is indeed Dec 31, 2008 and the idea (among some close friends) was to secure a “date” by 11:59 pm tonight. What started out as a tongue in cheek joke actually came to pass. The results show all four succeeding in securing dates or boyfriends. My best friend accomplished a 5 yr goal by meeting someone and getting married. Always above and beyond, that girl.
As for myself, my date and I made multiple visits to Monterey, Carmel, San Jose, Hollister, Santa Cruz, & Moss Landing. We took a motorcycle ride, shot pistols, took airplane ride(s), ate sushi, he gave me flowers and technological gadgets, and took me on countless trips to every Target/DSW within a 100 mile radius of SC. Our cell phone bills have seen cheaper days. I won't bore you with the fascinating details. I will clue you in on a secret: I think my 2008 was pretty much fabulous from beginning to end, and Get a Date in 2008 was a success.
My Date :
Is a man with a plan? Check.
Bible believing? Check.
Understands Java, HTML, C++, Ruby on Rails, and any other computer science garb? Check.
Speaks Portuguese? Check.
Pretty much awesome overall? Hmmmmm. Check
Yay! Quickly moving into 2009. Now, help me think of a new phrase for the New Year. :o)
I'm steadily working on my financial, educational, personal, and spiritual resolutions, and am ready for the New Year. Merry New Year. Cheers. Here's to 2009!
