Alright, so can we all be honest here? It is January. January = Snow, Snow = Cold, and after so long… Cold = Anger. So these past few days waking up to the sun, and the warmth has seriously kicked my level of happiness up a lot. So you might be wondering what in the hell I have been doing? Well, I am here to give you the info on just why I have not written anything in quite some time. Alright, so can we all be honest here? It is January.

So you might be wondering what in the hell I have been doing? Well, I am here to give you the info on just why I have not written anything in quite some time.

So for starters, I must say the holiday season was pretty damn good. Christmas is always one of my favorite times of the year. I am 22 years old and I still have this passion to wake up early and go to my parents living room and eagerly await the chance to shred through packaging. This year was no let down. My parents always have this interesting way of placing a theme to my Christmas as a practical joke to some extent. This year was no different. I awoke to everything I wanted as always. The parents, they have always been insanely accurate and well.. just awesome at getting what ever we asked for. Now given I got incredibly sick on Christmas and that drug on through the New Year, I still managed to enjoy everything I got to do.

To add to that joy I had some vacation time laying about so I opted to take all of that and declare myself on high school Christmas vacation. That worked out fairly well. I just wanted one more chance to remember what it was like to only have to deal with high school. Key note… To those of you in high school, never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever eeeeeever…. complain about being in school. It is the one time in your life where your biggest problem is if Emily thinks you look cute or not, if your car is cool enough for the ladies, and the big key of high school, what pants should I wear today? So, suck it up and enjoy it.

So anyways, to add to everything Spin It will be turning the ripe old age of 1 year old this February. It feels like I have been working on Spin It for roughly… 5 years. At the same time I can remember how the very first template looked compared to now. We have probably made 5 years of changes in this one which may add to why it feels like 5 years.

I am extremely happy with the site right now and everything that is going on with it. I actually wake up pretty excited about the work I am going to do each day. We have the Dining Card which is just to awesome. If you do not get one, then you may have problems. I am just putting that out there. I mean come on, it is free, and gets you discounts, and free stuff. On top of that we have a benefit concert coming up with local bands, and I am sure their will be various other randomly cool stuff going on here. So needless to say, you have plenty of reasons to keep checking back with us to see what we have going on.

All in all things tend to be pretty good right now. Aside from the Steelers losing in the playoffs, but that… that is an entirely different article in itself, that will probably never get written. To much to be said, and not enough time.

Oh well, until next time…
