"So this is our New Blog, and Micki must be bored at work.."
~ Death Cab

This is Andy, as oppose to Micki in other posts. I am on my non-paid, New Year vacation in <> Tennesse and Arkansas... I am looking forward to the new year... as a SWAT team looks at their objectives... 1. Complete the school work. 2. Get out of New Orleans. 3. Stay alive.... But seriously, unlike any other year, i know exactly what is ahead for me. Easy? no... challenging? yep... never really lived like that... but hey, people do it everyday....

Best Albums of 2007 -
Friend or Foe by Menomena
We were dead before the ship even sank, by Modest Mouse
Armchair Apocrypha - by Andrew Bird
The shepard's dog, by Iron and Wine
The Crane's Wife, by The Decemberists

5 Predictions for 08
1. LOST season 4 will be amazing...
2. Micki will learn to watch football more...
3. Obama will be elected...
4. More people will realize Macs are better...
5. The death of MySpace.... it just needs to be an all music site...

"So this is the New Year...and I don't feel any different."
-DC4Cutie

Christmastime was wonderful, but it has disappeared again and left me with an overwhelming feeling of, "Okay, now what?" At least Andy and I have our Birthdays to look forward to...then Valentine's, then hopefully some Spring Break/Vacation time...then our anniversary. My how time goes so quickly. We've been married over 5 months now! Yay! Only 7 more and people will stop telling us that the first year of marriage is the hardest. Then they'll move on to asking us when we're going to start a family. Well, I'm just going to tell them that we already are a family. We need a kitty first anyway.

Bests and worsts:

BEST memory of 2007--My wedding day.
WORST memory of 2007--My brother Richard going to Iraq.

BEST Christmas present of 2007--My pearls given by Andy.
WORST Christmas present of 2007--The Gap socks I gave Andy that I thought were argyle but they weren't.

BEST new TV Show addiction of 2007--Pushing Daisies and AFV.
WORST new TV Show addiction of 2007--Deal or No Deal.

BEST new movie of 2007 (seen in theater)--Across the Universe and The Prestige.
WORST new movie of 2007 (seen in theater)--The Number 23.

This list could go on and on...
