As you can probably tell, "Write more in journal" was not a new year's resolution of mine.

But I'm still here. I'm still reading. And I'm happy that there exist two people who actually missed me.

I just haven't felt like writing. Life is pretty good, I'm busy at work... but I am feeling quiet about it. Christmas was nice. We found our 100th geocache on New Year's Eve (well, during the day). We just took our tree to be recycled yesterday, and not because it really needed it, but because this was the last weekend the recycling centers were accepting them. It was still nice and green and dropped only a handful of needles as we stripped it and stuffed it in the tarp. I apologize, poor dignityless tree. You deserved better, but you will become mulch now and there are worse fates. (And for everyone else: noble fir. It was a really nice tree. It more or less stopped drinking right around Christmas, but still refused to die -- I think we could've kept it another week. I've never had a Christmas tree around on my birthday, and I was tempted, but Ken indicated that he did not wish to dispose of the tree on a work day and I *was* kind of allergic to it so I suppose it was time to let it go, though I'm going to miss those nights of turning off all the lights and gazing at the softly glimmering tree.)

Hey there - I did get your Christmas package (thank you very much, I loved everything in it!) I've just been a slacker about letting you know that I did indeed receive it. I never filled out that new survey for the package gang back when things were being redone in the fall (again, laziness) but it's become apparent to me that I really can't continue with it either. So, my buddy, you're awesome and I loved doing package gang with you, but no sweat! We can both bow out gracefully!

Trista put me on to your birthday. I hope you had a good one, with all those things she wrote so enthusiastically about. I think she is the very essence of enthusiasm. I'll only add one more wish: may you and Ken reach the million, or gazillion mark of the very best geocaches one could ever hope for! And, glad to see you back! I haven't been writing much either, much to my chagrin.
