well spent a day being moody about what I did not achieve in 2008.  Got tired of being around myself, so I know my family hated it.

Well 2008 is almost over, so to hell with it.  Onto 2009, so it is time to start thinking of goals, start to look forward.

Simply my goals so far include (in no particular order):

• Stay employed
  
• Take my GRE to get officially into the Purdue Master's program
  
• Catch up on my Civil Air Patrol task, including the squadrons website and supply officer duties
  
• Survive my daughter's eleven year
  

More to come.

Finally a note to VW, do you think you could possibly make the battery of a beetle even harder to change?
