According to my stats I'm really popular in Germany. Fantastic. More Germans are reading my blog than Americans lately, and hopfully I won't scare you guys away like the Chinese and South Koreans. Maybe I can be popular over there like David Hasselhoff. I'm not German in the slightest (to my knowledge) and do not know how to speak the native tounge, BUT perhaps we can strike a deal? I'll be witty, lovable and adorable, you guys accept me into your fold and I'll hang out there for a few years? Eh? Eh?
It's okay. You don't have to answer right now. Just....think about it. Okay?
Well, its a new year readers. Six days in and I'm already sick of hearing about this 2012/Apocalypse business. Yes, apparently the Mayan calendar coincidentally stopped on December 21st, 2012, the day before my 26th birthday. But, for my sake Pop Culture, I think you should shut up about it. It was funny five years ago when people were like, "Hey...did you notice the end of the world is coming up? Better start writing books and making movies if we going to be topical." Then there's the History Channel. I LOVE the History Channel. But only when it talks about the 1960's, space, or feudal Japan. When it starts using terms such as, "Armaggedon" "Illuminati" "Templar" "Conspiracy" "Aliens"...then I know its time depart and hope that The Best of the Joy of Painting is on.
Other than that, this new year has been great. The sun has been shining, and the temperature is perfect. This is the winter I've dreamed of for a few years now. If winter weather would just remain between 55 degrees and 65 degrees, I would love it. And you know what? My dream has finally come true. It's given me the opportunity to run, which I did with my Vibrams a couple days ago (walking like C-3PO though). I don't care if theres global warming and melting ice caps. Right now, the weather is lovely. I just have this disconcerting feeling we'll pay dearly for this nice weather. Like an ice storm. Or locusts. But I'm optimistic.
Not much to update. I left the tea business last Saturday. So far, I feel great. I wasn't sure it was the right move, but why stay someplace to stagnate? Life wasn't really moving forward. And thats the focus for this year, move life forward. That's kinda been my mantra the last couple years, but I think I'm serious this time.
What are your New Year's resolutions and/or big plans for the new year? I would love to hear them.
Anyway, that's pretty much it. Really I just wanted to write how excited that Germans frequent my page more than my American friends. Please continue to return. Seriously.
Take care readers. Enjoy the new year!

Thrilling Times Ahead
Happy New Year to whoever is reading this (probably just me *depression*).
We made it. Most of us did. I can't account for every last human being. But I can account for myself. And I'm pretty sure I'm right here, right now, which is fantastic. Congrats Mike. We're all proud. We're also proud you made it to your 23rd birthday.
Really, this New Year is terrifying. I just finished college and now I'm out to hunt for work. It's a new decade. A whole new world is ahead and I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing. But I'm a genius, so I should get by alright.
That's right. Hire me. I'm a genius. I'll bring in the big bucks for your company.
You know what New Years Day is great for? Naps. I think this should be National Nap Day. Is there already such a thing? If its a whole day, and you nap the whole day, is that really a nap? A nap is rather short, a sleep is several more hours, but day would be a quasi-coma. Hmm. Either way, nobody does anything on New Years. Its just lazy day. So, a National Nap Day seems appropriate. Don't steal my idea. I want to be the one who has the claim to National Nap Day.
"Michael, as President of the United States, I award you with the Awesome Award. You're a stinkin' genius. Everyone loves Nap Day. I don't think there is a better a person in all the land."
"Why thanks Barry (That's what I call him, because we're buddies and he's cool with it). I mean, I might be one of the single greatest Americans of this generation"
"I know. You invented freakin' Nap Day. Who else is going to get his or herself together and think of something so incredibly awesome"
"Yep. Well, I'm going to go home and put this next to my Nobel Peace Prize. Still down for playing Mario Kart later?"
"Of course, of course"
Yep. That would be pretty sweet. But with New Years Day, people might forget about Nap Day, since it will always be overshadowed by New Years. Crap. Apparently I'm not as intelligent as I once presupposed.
Speaking of naps, I need one.
