THE LOWS OF 2007
Lackluster summer at Recreation Unlimited

My month long employment as a Kroger's night stock boy

THE HIGHS OF 2007
Making BG's long form improv team, Bad Genetics
Making two new films, Werewolf Doctor:The Quest For Blood and The Bouncer or How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Scene
Rock Band and the general camaraderie it brings
End of the semester slumber/movie party at Alex's
Finally getting my license, and driving around and hanging out much more as a result of said freedom
The Strike Anywhere show in September
mc chris in November
My birthday being the best ever this year by starting off with a great night at karaoke
My amazing girlfriend Sarah who puts up with my general nerdery all of the time

There will be a real update soon, I promise. And you won't have to wait two months this time!
