1 Happy New Year. I'm already pissed. So back off.
2 Haha!!! Boo!
3 GOD IT'S GREAT TO BE BACK, MAN!!!!
4 I just want to kick someone in the ass today.
5 You see, the thing about having time off is that you have to come back. And the night before you have to come back ANY time is always a pissy one.
6 I call it the Sunday Syndrome, or the SS. It doesn't matter WHAT the Hell you call it. You just walk around grousing at everyone, for no damned reason.
7 It's like, after a small time off, or a weekend, the night before that FIRST day back is just a pissy night, no matter HOW good of an attitude you have.
8 As for me, I just didn't get enough time with people, especially the kids who graduated last year. I REALLY wanted to spend more time with some of them, but I guess that just didn't happen. So THAT annoyed me. I looked forward to seeing those guys for three months, and then whoosh!!!! Suddenly, I'm thrown back to being a prison guard around here again.
9 So, yeah.
10 I feel like I got roughed up, and slapped around. Sucks.
11 It's now 2006, and I have to return without my fix of smiles and laughs. So if you hear of freshmen flying through windows later today, just chill. We have plenty more windows.
12 Just kidding. But ya GOTTA go into a New Year with total attitude.
13 GOD IT'S GREAT TO BE BACK, MAN!!!!!
14 Betcha missed the DN.
15 Come on, admit it.
16 So the irony about my last entry before I left is that I was all over how much Capitola means to me. Well, yesterday Zelda's, that outdoor restaurant on the beach, got slapped around by storms, and Capitola got soaked! The beach is no longer a beach, but a landing spot for soaked logs, green muck, and seaweed. The entire outside dining area is gone, at least for a while. The sea gulls are going to have to fly to Watsonville for Tartar sauce and polite conversation.
"My mother? Says they're just rats, with wings...seh- gulls...you totally have to clean out your ears!!!!"

17 I was gonna go to Capitola yesterday too, but Highway 17 right around the summit was evidently all slud with mud and debris. Not a good time to be traveling the mountain, man, unless you're moss.
18 So I just moped around yesterday, sighing down the wind so sadly; listen and you'll hear me moan.
19 And YEAH I stole that line from the Rolling Stones. Sue me.
20 Well, I'm ready to take on the rest of the year. Only instead of being fulfilled and happy, I'm just ready to clobber the whole world right now: people who drive and talk on cell phones, those guys who look like fish lures and work at Tower, the nuclear-ly perky, and of course, that muscle-bound Fabio workout Geico guy who rides that bicycle thingy upside down. I just wanna knock him down and pummel him, like those blow-up clowns that you punch and then they rock back up to you so you could punch them again and again. Yeah. That'd be cool.
20 So yeah, we're back, but right before we left, all our stuff was working, as I recall. The ATFNL not only SANG beautifully at Christmas at YB they ALSO took a FIRST PLACE for tree decoration in the Club Group Category at Christmas in the Park downtown! We won $500 bucks!!! I THOUGH it was a thousand, but we'll take it!!!
21 The play brought undiscovered talent to the YB stage, and now we have SINGERS!!!
22 The Winter Concert rocked, despite the rudeness of the audience, and it would appear that we are all ready to rock this place hard.
23 THAT'S why I REALLY am full of moje today. I'm ready to start DOING things and making things rock!!!
24 I'm in the business of making memories.
25 It's a livin'. I kick ass at it.
26 So welcome back. I'm looking forward to lots of new memories this Spring, and to making every day the best day of the year.
27 It's what I do.
28 The Past is prologue.
29 So let's get it started, right here, right now.
30 Time waits for no one.
31 Peace.
