The thing about getting older is…

Remember, back in elementary school, when dating important times table or penmanship worksheets, weeks after the New Year, you'd mark the previous year? Well that's what today feels like, only it's December.

It's incredible and slightly frightening how fast the calendar flips after college. Yesterday, I even happened to peruse the "2005" Smart playlist on the iPod. Sure enough, there were close to a couple thousand tracks. Those that were released (or leaked) early in 2005 sounded like ghosts from years back.

2006? Hmm.
