What a Wonderful New Year!

I just want to take this time to proclaim a Happy New Year to everybody! It's been a great vacation at home. For more vacation details, read on:

Started off by hanging out with the whole Farmer Family for a baby blessing, then we played monopoly with the cousins. Incidentally I won 2 out of 3 of the games. The game I lost it was 3 people who merged to play against me, and I say this oh so modestly: it still took them 2 hours to take me down.

Then on Monday at 12:00 noon my friend Dave and I finally decided to go on a roadtrip, and then after some very thorough packing and careful planning we left at 12:30 p.m., and on Tuesday night around midnight we made it to Miami. Now you're all saying to yourselves "Why were you in Miami?" Now if ever it was possible to ask a stupid question, I believe that would be the question. I also believe the correct question to ask in this case is: Why NOT be in Miami?

Got back from our roadtrip on Friday at 4 a.m. - Dave successfully drove for 1004 miles or so from Daytona Beach to St. Louis.

I then thought to myself: "Why not drive to Kansas City to purchase Arthur Bryant's?" and I successfully made it to Columbia Missouri when my brain finally answered the question I asked it 2 hours before: "It's only 6 a.m. you idiot, and Arthur Bryant's doesn't open until noon!" So I turned right around and made it back to St. Louis at 8 a.m.

And then celebrated the New Year with friends I hadn't seen in years, and will soon be regretting this when I need to wake up five hours from now to go to church. But you're supposed to "live in the moment" eh?

More on roadtrip and other events later - I've got to run if I want to make it to Arhtur Bryant's and back in time for church.
