Newness
I am about to go out for one last time in 2006. For me, this has been a really good year. A year of new friends, of renewed youth, of busy weeks, of many visitors, of traveling and experiencing.
I think it's funny, how we mark things by years. What is a year? A collection of days, really... And yet, to me, something has always seemed so final about New Years Eve. No turning back, another year gone. The upside is that tomorrow will be filled with newness and with the sense of possibility that I am so in love with.
Here's to more living in 2007!

Blog Gone?
I am so bad at this blogging thing. Maybe it is because I have been blogging for so long? Or perhaps I am less inclined to share my innermost thoughts lately? I am not sure what is going on, but I am taking another stab at it. Since I last posted, I had an awesome trip to New York with Neil, my brother and my grandma. We saw the Rockettes at Radio City Music Hall, The Lion King and The Drowsy Chaperone. We rode a carriage through central park, we shopped at Uniqlo, watched my grandma buy diamond earrings at Tiffany's and had an awesome time. Then Dustin (my brother) visited us in DC through Thanksgiving which was awesome. We had amazing weather and it was really refreshing to spend so much time with him.
I also went to New Mexico twice in three weeks which was both wonderful and exhausting. Neil's documentary on the governor was shown at the NM Film Expo the first weekend of December and I was home last weekend for the whole Christmas Eve walk.
All of the intense craziness has been fun, but I am really ready for some nights in. It's introspection time again. 2006 is ending. I have been in DC for more than a year and it's time to think about what is next... or at least to really examine my life and make sure I am really living. So that's what I am up to these days - trying to live more, to love better, to be less selfish, to listen to more music (new favorite album: Rabbit Fur Coat - Jenny Lewis), move more (dance classes anyone?) and just be present in the moment. I think I have been on autopilot again for a while and it's time to be awake.
Good morning.
