I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don’t know where it goes
But it’s home to me and I walk alone (auctually Winamp shuffled to that song as I wrote the lyrics)

2004 was descent, I’ll always remember things like moving out and graduating and such, but much can be improved upon.  All I can do is try and make the best of it, and hit on every girl I see .
