Live each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each.
Henry David Thoreau
Thanks for the quote, Jeff. An excellent find!
Happy New Year, y'all! 2008 was great, but 2009 should be just fine.
See y'all next year,

Drunken ramblings and such...
So i'm sitting here listening to Dido and you're probably thinking "how typical." And of course i would say "screw you!" Ha, but i kid...
What a crazy year it has been in the world of oSLo, not to mention the world in general. I would take the time to reflect on some of the highlights, but they are entirely too numerous to do that. I recommend a little research for both of us, though. It would probably make for a more informed discussion... if you're into that kind of thing. If not, then f*ck it.
It has been a little over a year since i launched this blog. If you'll remember, it was originally designed to announce my 30th birthday plans, but i had a feeling i'd have more to say after all that. And wouldn'tcha know, i was right! Call it a self-fulfilling prophecy if you will because i would call it that, too.
I told a good friend that this has been the best year of my adult life. I mean that in the sincerest way. That being said, if you have felt offended at all by any of the things i've done or said in the past year, i sincerely apologize for you feeling that way. I am not apologizing however for my actions or my words. I stand by everything i've done and said. I've been wrong and i am not afraid to say that. I've also been right more oftentimes than not, but in either case i've taken a stand. I've had moments of self-doubt i freely admit. It happens more often than i'd like to admit, but ultimately it all evens out. Take solice in knowing that. I know i do.
I could go on and on, but it's the night before my birthday and i feel a need to turn it off for a while. Dido is still playing and i don't want to miss the end.
Take good care, y'all.

For Funsies!
I hate to do this, but at the same time, i love to do this. I have a lot i could write about right now, but i'm just not up to it, so here's another comical thing i got through e-mail from my buddy, Cinnamon. Hope y'all enjoy it and don't worry, i'll be back at it soon enough. But for now, i'm going to go have a beer and kick it with Nick. Holla!
oSLo
1. Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me for the path is narrow. In fact, just piss off and leave me alone.
2. Sex is like air. It's not important unless you aren't getting any.
3. No one is listening until you fart.
4. Always remember you're unique. Just like everyone else.
5. Never test the depth of the water with both feet.
6. If you think nobody cares whether you're alive or dead, try missing a couple of mortgage payments.
7. Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
8. If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.
9. Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day.
10. If you lend someone £20 and never see that person again, it was probably well worth it.
11. If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.
12. Some days you are the bug; some days you are the wind screen.
13. Don't worry; it only seems kinky the first time.
14. Good judgment comes from bad experience ... and most of that comes from bad judgment.
15. A closed mouth gathers no foot.
16. There are two theories to arguing with women. Neither one works.
17. Generally speaking, you aren't learning much when your lips are moving.
18. Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.
19. We are born naked, wet and hungry, and get slapped on our ass ... then things just get worse.
20. Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.
