happy new year to me

thanks to lloyd carr, this year's january 1 was a marked improvement over the last. hooray to michigan football for not allowing me to watch the bowl game in a DC bar. alone. wearing the maize and blue. meeting a stage actor from michigan who was recently in an episode of law and order. taking a shot every time USC scored. and subsequently getting absolutely wrecked only having to show up to work the next morning on my 3rd full week at the job. (true story)

programming note: sorry for the blogging vacation i took, but there will be mass reports of my time spent in michigan. a teaser: snow, babies, pictionary, movies, and guitar hero.
