Beginnings
Happy new year! Welcome, 2005, and I hope you have a nice time here.
My wife and I celebrated New Year's Eve with some friends and participated in a White Elephant gift exchange. Kinda unusual to do one after Christmas, but it was cool nonetheless. We walked away with a pair of Shrek slippers and a Mr. Potato Head massager. We narrowly missed out on a singing Christmas tree and a lovely singing and dancing lobster.
We also celebrated New Year's Day by grilling hamburgers an having a picnic by ourselves out on our deck with the dogs, the birds, and our outdoor cat. This was right around the time we hit the high temp for the day - 75 degrees. I love Texas: we had a White Christmas this year, and a week later it's in the mid-70's again.
