A New Dawn, A New Day


                Dang!  Long time no see Blog buddies!  You guys should come around more often.  We could be a little more realistic and say that it is my fault for not writing anything for like 2 months.  But, I think we should suspend realism for a second and possibly throw the blame somewhere else.  Mostly due to the fact that I hate being at fault for stuff like this.  There is a lot of performance pressure.  I’m only one man! 

                So, instead of taking all the blame for this one, I’m gonna blame work… and video games.  Plus, I’ve had a lot of family in town, and it would have been rude and bitter not to catch as much time with them as possible.  (Those greedy nerds.)  There we go, we’ll just blame them.  That way everyone is happy… except them.   Moving on.

                I guess I should give you a general description of how my year went.  A 2013 in review blog, if you will.  (Even if you won’t.)  Not sure where to begin because I forget a lot of stuff.   My days run together, like constantly.  My thought is that I’ll start with what I did do this past year.  And probably end with it too.

                I DID:  Turn 24, play a ton of video games, play a ton of board games, move into a new house, pay more in rent, eat more fast food, get a gym membership, keep my job, survive the entire year (even the really rough stuff), watch many Televised programs, watch lots and lots of YouTube videos, dress like a woman, AND start a blog.  Maybe you’ve heard of it, LAZY Rhino’s Blog.  On that site Blogger…  Hey, I said maybe you’d heard of it.  Now to move on to the things I didn’t accomplish in 2013.

                I DID NOT:  Turn any other age but 24 (not even mentally developed to 24 some might say), finish a ton of video games, go to the gym, move to Dallas as expected, get a new job in Dallas, die this year (crossing my fingers for another year of not dying), go out and make new friends (too busy making T.V. friends for that), like dressing as a woman, start my video blog (Vlog for you fancy types) that I wanted to start.  I certainly didn’t put it on YouTube.  So, one step forward, and one step back… I think…?

                I’m not sure what 2014 holds for me (or anyone else, for that matter).  I do know that I can’t have another 2013.  One, because it is actually physically impossible to go back in time (trust me, I’ve tried).  Two, maybe it is only improbable to go back in time.  And three, maybe I should try harder on that time machine thing.

                Never you mind on that stuff; instead pay minds to this stuff.  The present is here in every moment that we have.  Here, this time, this place.  You, reading this and me, hoping that you’re reading this.  I’ve never been one for the New Year’s resolutions.  I’ve never been one with much follow through, or one with much of anything for that matter.  But, in all this mess, I do have one thing.  One miniscule thing.  I will continue on this journey.  I will continue forward.  I will press on into the dark night and hopefully come out on the dawn of a new and glorious day.  My adventure hasn’t ended yet (may not have begun either).  So, blog friends and real friends alike, will you join me in a fabulous new year?  With more games, blogs, and terrifyingly too much insight into my personal life and time that you never honestly wanted to know about much less read a blog about.  Good.  Me too.
