Home again
I'm home, but I don't feel like making an update right now, so instead I'll do this quiz I stole from Dustin who stole it from Melissa. It beats making an auctal update.
1) What did you do in 2004 that you'd never done before? Went to college and didn't see my friends or family for months at a time, which was a huge step considering that before then longest I'd been away from either was one week.
2) Did you keep your New Years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year? I got a haircut, which I suppose was necessary. I don't like them because if you want to do something, you should just do it, not wait for some cheesy holiday to say "I'll do this".
