Hmmm...

So.. I couldn't really think of anything to write about this time so I decided to pick out a random old picture and put that on here instead. I know, I'm clever. :P

Happy New Year!

Wow, it's already 2009. crazy crazy. So I start my new job (medical billing) next week. I guess I'm starting out on phones at an office while I'm training so I'll slowly work my way up to billing from home. yay!

So a new year means new resolutions, right? Well, I resolve to budget my money better. I've recently gotten into a website, mint.com, that allows me to view all of my spending on one really awesome and easy to navigate page (with tabs). So we've created a budget to start this month and if we stick to it, we should have plenty of money left over to keep in savings and then up some credit card payments next month. Plus we finally started putting stuff on eBay and that's working out really well so far.

My second resolution is to really start working on these goals of mine. As you can see, I've been slacking a bit. I blame holidays. Because I can. ;)

Gin Blossoms

Went and saw Gin Blossoms Saturday night totally on a whim. It was awesome. I had no idea that most of them live right here in the valley. Good stuff. :)

And because I love anything done in one continuous shot, here's the video for Gin Blossoms' Allison Road:

Wii Fit

So I have this game called Wii Fit. It's pretty fun and really gives you a workout but I'm supposed to play it almost everyday and I can't ever seem to do it. I can be really good for a couple days and then not come back to it for a couple weeks. It's annoying. So I have a new goal. To play Wii Fit once a day for a week. :)

The measure of time to your next goal is the measure of your discipline.

I think someone's trying to tell me something...
