January Life update
Christmas is over and life is back to the routine. I enjoyed Christmas, it was good times. I’m still getting used to the transition of Christmas being about the next generation of Deadwylers and not my generation. It’s about watching my nieces and nephews having a blast and just loving the holidays. Always nice to see family though. I got to play a lot of Rock Band with my cousins. My cousins are really cool and I love music so the combination was a rocking good time!
This month in music is boring. No good CD’s seem to be coming out. However, I have found a couple things from 2007 that I missed to keep me my need for new music satisfied. I was wondering what ever happened to Midtown. They were a punk band that I liked. Well, I found out they broke up and the lead vocalist went on to make Cobra Starship. Now Cobra Starship is a Rock/Punk/Hip-hop/dance band. They have a unique sound that I haven’t heard yet but I enjoy it. It is like Midtown meets The Faint. I even hear Nelly influences at time. It’s an unusual blend but I’m really enjoying it.
I also ordered Seldoms CD Romance off of half.com. Seldom was a band I heard my first year of college in a concert with Pedro the Lion. I really dug their show and picked up their EP. It is 5 of my favorite songs I own. Then I never heard about them again. Well, while hunting around a couple months ago I found out about a full length album that they released before breaking up. So far I’m really loving the album and grieving their break up.
In more sad news, the house is about to be knocked from three down to two again. That’s right, Ted has decided to move out leaving Gary and me by our lonesomes. So now I am back on the roommate hunt which isn’t a fun ride. I hope I find someone soon because mainly I need the money 
.
Next in life is what is pretty much on par with what everyone does in January. Oh, it is the month of dieting. Yes, for those of us who are still going strong 1 month into the grind. Things are progressing well and I’ll probably give an update just on this topic as it is a big one for me.
You’ve heard about the stolen wii already. That sucked and I continually get re-angry about it. I’ve had no luck finding the cluprit.
Tonight is the Lost Party. Yeah! People from my church are really into it. So maybe that’ll make me enjoy it more. I’ve always liked it but never been a fanatic.
More happened in January but I want to get this post out before January ends so, here it is.

Hi Brett!
I can’t believe someone stole your stuff! That stinks. I was just catching up with you via internet… I read about the diet too – if you need to commiserate feel free to email or call – I battle with it every day! People keep saying “don’t call it a diet, call it a lifestyle”…. I say, sure, if you want to define “lifestyle” as “painful and restrictive denial of a great pleasure source”…
Hang in there! It feels good to be more healthy. (I keep telling myself that every day… well, every moment of every day…)
Love Aunt Laura
