I was going to blog, then I got distracted, and now I don't really feel in the mood for it. I hate when that happens. I had a bit of time set aside for doing it, and now I don't really have anything else to do with that time...
I've also just realised how much of a Bethany thing to do it was to write hmph in a blog. Expressions of frustration.

New year, new me...
This year started off with a bang. I was spinning at the Zeo in the firehall at TACF, and as the clock struck twelve, I was with my beautiful girlfriend who I was spending the week with. Canada was great. Really great. It snowed while I was there (it rained too, but let's forget about that...), there was plenty of opportunity for skating, and I played some hockey too. I hung out with old friends and I made some new ones. It was fantastic to get a real holiday for once.
Then I came back, and went back to work. The new year has brought new responsibilities, and that's a good thing. I'm really feeling like this is the line of work that I want to pursue, and that's a really good feeling. That, along with some other things which I'm sure will get discussed on here in due course, has started me thinking that God really does have my life planned out, and I'm starting to understand some of what he has for me. All this is good.
New year means new year resolutions, and I have a couple. Firstly, I want to be better with my money. This has already been working itself out in a variety of ways, not least of which is an answer to my prayer about getting a better car. With prayer and careful planning, I'm getting a truely awesome deal on both the car and the insurance. Sweet. Then there's the other resolution - to improve my piano skills. Still working on that one.
Finally, a new year means a new me, and that includes a new look. Despite the fact that Bethany loved the sideburns and lengthy hair, and ignoring the fact that in one of The Salvator Darlings' songs, I proclaim 'My beard is full, my hair's quite long', I took a pair of clippers to my face and head, and now look far more presentable, much to the pleasure of my mom. And much to the amusement of my work collegues, most of whom didn't recognise me when I walked in yesterday morning!
One more thing - Although I'm broken by the events in Asia over the holiday period, I don't intend to blog about it, because I'm fairly convinced that most of the blogging community has made some sort of comment, and I'm not one to join the masses in something like that. So that's my statement on the matter, and it's the last you'll hear of it here. Love.
