10) Did you fall in love in 2005?
Already was, does that count?

No
16) Did you make any new friends in 2005?
Sort of
17) Who are your favorite new friends?
They're not so much "new" friends as people whom I feel I have gotten to know a bit better and feel closer to, namely Joe, Alex, Kevyn, Damon, Sarah, Motz, Aristai. Instead of being mere acquaintances, we talk more about real life things, and that's good.

March. That was when we moved in to our new house.

VNV Nation at the Aladdin Theater

Not really.
29) Did you do a lot of drugs in 2005?
Only the governmentally approved ones.
30) How many people did you sleep with in 2005?
Seeing as how I'm married, if I were to answer anything other than "one" to this, you'd probably raise the proverbial eyebrow, now wouldn't you? At least, I hope you would.
31) Did you do anything you regretted of this year?
Yes
33) What was the worst lie someone told you in 2005?

More than I should have.
37) What was your proudest moment of 2005?
Realizing that I had lost over 35 pounds in 6 months.

39) If you could go back in time to any moment of 2005 and change something, what would it be?
Spring. I would have adopted a better financial strategy for the upcoming year (moving, bill consolidation, wife's business, etc...) instead of doing everything at the last minute.
40) What are your plans for 2006?
To do the best I can at my job, stay in the gym, lose another 5 to 10 pounds, get out a bit more often with Sunday, and read a bit more often with Torsten.
