Happy New Year's Day!

Happy New Year's Day! I hope 2009 is wonderful for everyone and I hope you made it home safely from last night's festivities. The Stenmans stayed home because neither of us is really interested in going to a crowded bar with a bunch of idiots to ring in the new year. Eli made duck (very good) and we watched a movie. Eli fell asleep on the couch at 9:30 p.m. like he did last year.
When it got closer to 11 (midnight on the east coast), we watched Kathy Griffin and Anderson Cooper on CNN. I LOVE her. And it's funny to watch her and Anderson, cause you know that Anderson loves her and thinks she's funny but is acting all Prada-wearing journalist. (snaps to him for having her on when she makes fun of him in her show).
The best part was that people were heckling them and Kathy yelled at them, saying she was working. She goes "Hey, I don't go to your job and knock the d*cks out of your mouth!" Hysterical. CNN quickly went to commercial. I hope she doesn't get in trouble for that, cause it was damn funny. And, really, what do people expect when they hire her?
Anyway.
So my new year's resolution this year is to find out what is next for myself. I'm kind of going through a phase of trying to discover what's next in my life, how to grow as a person, in relation to Eli and our marriage. It's a very tricky thing.
I remember going through several emotional growth spurts in high school and college and now I feel like I'm going through another one. I am now married, have a good job (considering I'm in journalism), and am so not ready to have kids.
So now what? I have no idea. I've been reading a lot, sort of as food for the soul so to speak. So maybe something will inspire me. I'm just kind of searching.
So that's my goal this year.

Jaci tagged me to post the sixth photo in the sixth photo file on my computer. And describe it. So here's the photo:

I have no idea what this is. Eli goes to hockey games and takes a thousand pictures, like he's shooting for Sports Illustrated. So this is one of those said photos. This guy looks like he's about to score...

Maybe Eli can comment and shed some light on the situation.
