Final note on 2009

2009 is coming to an end and here I am at day 2 in pain recovering from a quad workout, over did a workout again. If I do end up going to a dance tonight, it's gonna be a little tricky, my legs are going to be stiff and I'll probably look like the tin man trying to bust a move.

For the past couple of days, while I've been browsing the web I've noticed a lot of best of 2009 or top 10s of 2009. I couldn't help but look back at my own year and I can't help but feel like I wasted a whole year. It went by way too fast, and a total blur. There's two thing this year I love the most and that's my family and friends. Getting together for birthdays and outings. Good times indeed. One of favorite Christmas movie I enjoy watching every year is "It's a Wonderful Life" and one of my favorite quotes from it, is where Clarence wrote a message in a book to George Baily, saying, "Remember, George: no man is a failure who has friends" I do want to thank my peeps for being there with me through the year, but more importantly I hope I did my best to be there for them.

Another thing I need to remember to do this coming year is to SLOW down when driving. Thinking back I counted myself getting pulled over 5 times this year, but, only 3 was for speeding. Sometimes I don't realize how fast I am going, hopefully the radar detector I got will help prevent getting more speeding tickets...or I can just remember to drive slow.
After the layoff and the shut down of the Amaze studio this year, I am glad I still have a job with Griptonite. I do have a feeling 2010 will be better for the company, but on the personal side, as a treat for you all, I will attempt to at least post some new artwork each month. I did promise a friend that I would post AT LEAST once a month and hopefully this will help me live up to that promise.

Well, good riddance to 2009 and hello 2010. To whoever reads my blog, I will leave with you a quote from the famous daredevil, Evel Knievel, to carry onto the new year. "We are put on this earth to live and not exist."
