"It's great to be young and a Yankee."

2009=maybe my best year ever? 2010 has a tough act to follow.

Last year my resolution was to win the World Series. I was so so excited for 2009, mostly because 9 and 29 are my favorite numbers, so I just figured, this HAD to be the year that they did it.

2010 sounds more like a graphic novel in the sci-fi section of Barnes and Noble.

I need baseball to start. The other day I was waiting for the elevator in my building and when was trying to guess which one of the 3 would open first, I pretended I was playing the subway race game, like on the Jumbotron at Yankee Stadium.

And as an aside, I think there's a good chance I was accidentally telling everyone I was 29 all year. I wanted realllly badly to turn 29, so I could turn 29 on March 29 of 2009. Last weekend I was out and told someone I just met that I was 29 and my buddy goes, "What are you talking about, you're not 29, you're 28."

I wonder how many times I've done that without realizing it.

Well, I guess if I can be 29 two years in a row, the Yankees can be the Champions two years in a row.

There it is. My resolution.

That, and to actually listen to people's names when they introduce themselves, so 10 seconds later I'm not saying, "I'm sorry, I've forgotten your name already..."
