2007 Year in review

This has been a big year of change for me in a few ways. No, it's not been a bad year but it has been one of many 1st's for me as well as changes in things.
Any of you that know me, or have been following this blog have probably noticed the change in tone of the blog, as well as just all the stuff I've done this year that I haven't before.

In the course of the year, I've made new friends, re-estabished some, and lost one here and there along the way. Some are still in limbo as I've not quite figured out what to make of them.

Work was a good year in 2007. I got great satisfaction in knowing one of the projects I worked on is going to change the way ( hopefully ) in aviation and the way things are done. I learned alot @ work about not only our company, but also my abilities in my career and what is to come for me. If the last 2 months of work are any indication of what is to come in 2008, we're in great shape to have an even better year.

My autocrossing stepped up a in a big way this year. This was my 1st FULL year in the sport and it was a HUGE learning experience and a big undertaking for me to accomplish. I did my 1st national level events this summer/fall, and while I didn't place well I learned alot about what I need to do this year and what NOT to do. I have tons of plans for this season and stay tuned for that all to come in the next few months.

On a personal level, I didn't have a very exciting year. I went on one blind date and it was a disaster. I've had little or no exposure to anything else that can even remotely resemble a date or a potential for someone to date. All the ladies I've come across that COULD be potential for something, there's been various issues keeping that from happening.
Don't expect that aspect of my life to change at this point. Between work, and the upcoming season I'll be way too busy to even think about it.

The highlight @ the end of this year was getting to meet Mr. Strode @ the Corvette Museum and have a sitdown with him and talk cars briefly. Hopefully, we'll have more time to talk next time I'm down there.

Well, here's to a great 2008 for you all and keep posted to this blog and see what happens.
