What I won't miss about 2006
- Seeing every single business incorporating the St. Louis arch into their motto
- John trying to make me go up in the arch again

- Any of the songs by Nickelback or the million others who sound like them
- Seeing one more picture of Nicole Richie eating a hamburger
What I am looking forward to in 2007 (sev)
- Saying two-thousand-sev instead of two-thousand-sevEN (we haven't had a number ending in two syllables in a while, and quite frankly, my tongue got lazy)
- American Idol and my ritual dance to opening music
- "The Hills" - I know, you can make fun of me now. I might even give "Dancers Life" a shot too.
- Picking up a new (or maybe old) hobby
- Spending quality time with my family
- Planning trips to see friends in San Diego, Seattle, DC, Denver, OKC, and Boston (be patient, peeps!)
- Tasha's wedding (I promise I will be a great bridesmaid!)
- Reading some good books - got any?
- Getting healthy
- The Guy Davis concert
- My birthday - the big 25!
- Wearing flip-flops again
- Seeing more of Justin Timberlake
- High-speed internet
- Watching more Conan
- Spending more time outside
- Making more visits to Chicago
- Using my Banana Republic gift card - thanks, Court!
- Relaxing with my "Nap" blanket and pillow
- Finding a good job
- Reminding myself: "Happiness is not a matter of events; it depends upon the tides of the mind."

Love the post! I totally agree with more JT and less Nickelback and more American Idol and less "Head On" in "double 0-seven" (that's what I've been calling it) but I'm all about abreves, so I think I'll use both. Cheers!

This is an interesting blog. I should make a list of things that made me happy this year and things I won't miss. It would relax me, give me purpose and meaning of the past and hope for the future... But I'm too anxious to concentrate and I don't have the time. EEEEEEKKKK!
You left out Fort Wayne.............................
