well that's it - another year gone
i must be getting old
i used to just go
'yep, bye old year - bring on the new !'
and wake up in some state or other
now i find myself reflecting on this past year
and its a strange feeling
i'm not used to it
2006 was certainly jam packed
some things were not so good
i caused some people some pain
i took some hits myself
(hey - we've all been there i'm sure)
some things were real good
simplest but possibly biggest highlight
seeing TOOL play live for the first time ever
i hadn't been to a gig in years
a couple of mates dragged me out
and i was absolutely blown away !!
the best gig i have been to in years and definitely ranks in my top 5 ever (which takes some doing)
how something so simple can have such a positive impact is scary
the gig totally re-affirmed my love with live concerts and i am definitely getting off my butt to get out there more
what else have i learnt ???
my capacity for recovery no longer matches my ability to drink !!!
which sucks cos i love a beer or 5 !!!
there are still plenty of good people out there
they may be in another continent
they may be around the corner
but there is no point closing your eyes and your minds to the possibility
and for those that fuck you over...............
FUCK EM ALL..........
phew,
i feel better now
