Year End Round Up

Here Goes Nothing...

I could go on about my crappy year, but instead I've decided that bullet points are the way to go:

So there ya go, that's me in 2005.

My 2006 predictions?

• Try and spend a good six months with TFG without living apart.
• Explore Australia
• Get my Masters
• Grow the hell up.
• Hopefully drink a little less.
• Weigh a little less.
• Read what I want to a little more, not what I have to.
• Keep doing the whole no-pork no-beef thing.
• Try and make it out of Australia without eating an exotic animal.

And who could forget my FFFF?

I am a freak about coffee. Must have 4-6 cups a day to function. Just plain old coffee, with milk.

It goes in waves, maybe in cycle with my hormones, because there is one week a month where coffee tastes disgusting and I switch to tea. then the cravings come back and I'm hooked all over again.
