10 years ago

I noticed on Twitter today everyone is posting what they were doing 10 years ago. It got me thinking.  And when I get thinking I usually need a nap.  But after my nap I relized that I now nap more.  10 years ago I had more hair, I had no kids, I traveled more.  10 years ago my goal was to make it to the weekend, I ate out more.  10 years ago I didn't carry around a cell phone, If you were trying to get a hold of me you had to call my house and leave a message on my answering machine (remember those? you memberrrr...).  Caller ID was something new and cool.  Remember answering the phone by saying that person's name?  Now I feel naked without my cell phone.  And the internet...how that has changed.  10 years ago I had a dial up connection which took forever and there was nothing too great about the internet.  Today I'm usually on the net on a daily basis checking e-mail, surfing or shopping. Everyone was worried about the Y2K bug...how everything was going to mess up.  New Years Eve 1999 me and some friends were in Denver, Co. having a blast.  There were riot police everywhere that night but nothing happened besides too much drinking and a killer hangover for the first day of 2000.
The past 10 years a lot has changed.  I can now pause and rewind live TV.  Now if they can just find a way to fast forward live TV that would be cool.  The past 10 years have seen a lot of changes but the best thing that happened was becoming a father.  A hard job but one I love everyday.
10 years ago...what were you doing?

Happy New Year!!
