I have a feeling this will be my last post for 2006. I don't plan to be online much when I'm home in Michigan - Not only does my wrist seem to be screaming a case of carpel tunnel, but I hope to either be out and about with friends or doing anything else besides sitting in front of a computer.
A crazy thing developed over the weekend. My Dad had to take another spontaneous business trip to Germany this week, and it turns out he heads home on Saturday as well. Whereas I fly via Amsterdam, he goes through Frankfurt. Amazingly enough, he's scheduled to land in Detroit 2 minutes before me. Maybe he'll be nice enough to give me a ride home from the airport :-)
So, what can I say. I really am looking forward to 2007. I think it has the makings to be a great year. 2006 had some highlights (a few good trips, becoming debt-free), but overall, just didn't live up to the lofty expectations I place on everything. However, I've adapted my mindset for my remaining time in Germany. 2007 is about experiencing things. It's about friends. It's about traveling. It's about not waiting or hoping for this event or that person. 2007 is simply about doing. That's why five trips are already booked for next year. Next fall will be exciting at any rate, when I relocate back to the U.S., most likely purchase a condo, and start things anew in what is hopefully a great city. Like so many of the previous, it will be a year of transition. But until then, I've got some unfinished business in Europe.
Ok, enough of all that. It's party time.
PS. For anyone who does stop in to read any or all of these ramblings, take care of yourself and have a great holiday season :-) See you on the flipside.
