Loud speakers sound like disco lights

     I've tried several times to sum up 2011 without sounding cliche but I've concluded that I don't think it's possible. It was quite the year. It started off with MB having a broken stanky leg cancer scare and not being able to ski Tahoe or go to San Fran. It's looking like it's ending with Mike's new leg holding up quite nicely, but the snow here in Tahoe is an epic fail. We will make it to the Bay Area, but MB has yet to enjoy the slopes of Tahoe.

   In between you ask? Well there were countless job rejections, followed by a win in Malaysia. There were challenges, laughs, tears, adventure, loss, scars, raised glasses, a broken nose, and lifelong friendships made. I truly miss those who I grew close with over those dog days of summer. I'm thankful for the friendships that have grown back in Denver.

     I have never worked harder than I did in 2011. 2012 holds rewards; in whatever form it decides to present itself. I will finally graduate with my final degree (oh please no more school). I will be able to return to those who I miss dearly a world away, and I will be able to embark on the next adventure with those who I've grown closer to at home.

     Tomorrow I'll be ringing in the 2012 with a great group of people I haven't spent time with since I drifted far from Southern California. In an odd sort of way, this oval has come full circle.

     No one knows what the future holds and that is fact.

     So with nothing else to say, I raise my glass and clink it to you world...never cease to amaze and never fear the discovery.
