Hey it’s been a whole 2 weeks since I posted, the sky must be falling! Nah, I’ve just been super busy like the rest of you. Having a family, working a full time job, working on a thesis project, attending graudate school, and dealing with the usual holiday stuff has basically grinding my posting to a hault (which I expected it to). This blog will be back in full swing in January when things settle down.

So here is a recap of my life for 2008:

• 4,000 blog comment spam
• 4.5 deaths (4 humans, 1 dog):
  • Colin Main – a good friend for over 15 years
  • Bill Morenz – my sister’s father and close family friend
  • Julius Nicklom – my grandfather
  • Karen McCrae – a close friend I’ve known for almost 20 years
  • Footlong – my parents dashound that we’ve had since I was a kid
• 2 different jobs, the second I’m very happy with and will probably spend the next few years here
• 10lbs lost (about 60 more to go! lol)
• 1 minor surgery to remove a small lump from my arm
• Getting my debt under control with the help of our bank before the recession really hit Canada
• I sold off my of my unused domains finally! At the start of the year I had around 400, today I’m down to about 40 (most of them are in use). That saved a lot of money.
• 1 car accident (I backed into somebody that was riding my bumper at an intersection the other day)
• 30,000 unique visitors to this blog
• 1 World of Warcraft account reactived. I managed to resist for a while, but unfortunately I’m back in that stupid game….grrr….
• Discovering that my dog is epileptic (yes, she has seizures!).

Biggest regret of 2008: Not spending nearly enough time with my family

Plans for 2009:

• Finish my MBA (Dec 2009)
• Get my physics journal/publication (my thesis project) to generate $2500/month in revenue
• Spend more time with the family
• Get one World of Warcraft character to level 70 (probably my Warlock since they are stupidily OP right now)
• Buy my wife something shiny, it’s been a while since I’ve done that
• Play with my Wii Lightsaber that I got for Xmas

I hope you all have a very Happy New Year! This blog will be back to it’s usual posting of 2-3x per week starting in January. Until then, have a very Happy Holidays!
