I'm as old as I really am...





You Are 25 Years Old



25





Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.

13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.

20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.

30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!

40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.






So its off by about 10 months...ehhh....close enough.


So florida fun. Saw clients and relatives and went to Disney a bit.

New York was wonderful. Walked around NYC in the snow, went to the MoMA, had some good food (big f-ing sandwiches from the Carnegie Deli) and drinkies and the show was fantastic. I had a really great time.



Oh and the Eagles. Hooray!!!
Some of you may recall from the preseason that I picked the Eagles and Patriots to be in the Bowl. Afterall, the Patriots are my AFC team (I was born in New England). Some have asked, who do I want to win??? Eagles all the way. Although the Patriots beer mug from 1983 will be brought out for this game.

Thats about all I have for now.

People Suck at Choosing!

Last night was the broadcast of the People's Choice Awards. Sounds like a fun and exciting evening of seeing your favorite stars from all catergories of arts and entertainment...


WRONG!!!

I was all excited. I even made Chris and Lacey and Aaron watch it. Both Chris and I voted in the prior months. I wanted to see if other people think some shows are as cool as I do.


First of all, all winners broadcast were guaranteed to be there.
That sounds pretty cool. Until you think about it. That means that everyone knew beforehand that they were going to win (we had a satelitte feed of johnny depp from eastern europe! They probably didn't set that up unless they knew he was going to win.) (mmmmm Johnny Depp). That means that everyone else didn't show up. That also means that you knew who won prior to the catergory actually coming up. If you noticed anyone in the audience as it panned, you knew they were winners.

How lame is that????

Also, America has some pretty freaking bad taste. How can Joey be doing so poorly in the ratings but yet win best new comedy?!?!?!

Thats dumb too.

Ok, no more about that.

My prediction about what my parents would get me for Christmas was fairly accurate.

Clothes. Lots of clothes. Those clothes are still on the floor of my bedroom because I have no where else to put them. meep.

My Christmas tree is still up. I think I'll probably take it down in February. If I'm home...

Speaking of not being home, I'm not going to be home much until about...March. I'm going to Florida on friday. And then to NYC with Justin on the 21st : )

Florida was a fun trip to book. My primary reason for going is clients, I'll see them in several parts of the state for the whole trip, except sunday and Tuesday. I'll also see my Great Aunt and Uncle and my Aunt and Uncle and little cousins. The reason it was an interesting trip to plan was because of flight coordination. My father is already there. He's in Miami. My mother and I are flying into Fort Lauderdale on friday. We then drive to Fort Myers. Then to University City, then to Orlando, then to Tallahassee (where I leave, flying to Charlotte and then Philly), then they go back to Orlando, then to Stuart and then to Fort Lauderdale (Flying back on saturday). So lets review the flights...

Father departed to Miami on 1/9.
Me and Mom go to Ft Lauderdale on 1/14.
I leave 1/20 from Tallahasse (to Charlotte to Philly, then onto NYC).
Mother and Father leave 1/22 from Fort Lauderdale.

Yes, thats right, none of us could book together.

Meep. Why was I put in charge of travel arrangements?

I have decided to say Screw Financial Planning and become a travel agent.

I just booked the San Francisco Planning Forum Trip. That sucked too. I can't check any baggage. The meeting ends at noon. Our flight leaves at 1:20. I have to stay for the whole meeting in order to get my CE credits. Crap.

I have one thing to say...5 people going to Hawaii. 2 different days. 2 different hotels. Kill me.

Its ok. I'm going to Hawaii!!!!!!


So, I'm not gonna be posting so much in the next few months. Wanna talk to me?? Give me a call!
