Wave Goodbye 2009: NINJA @ Holmdel, NJ
One of the highlights of my #WTFamI Epic Roadtrip was seeing the Nine Inch Nails ‘Wave Goodbye 2009′ concert in Holmdel, NJ with my awesome friend Michael. It was a memorable night for dozens of reasons, the most important being the validation of true friendship and trust.
Music = Life… but without friends, the music would stop…

Burned Out by Blogging
Hello, my name is @iKrissi and I’m a recovering blogger.
This screenshot of the krissi.me WordPress dashboard sums up the reason why I got burned out by blogging. The image shows the total number of original blog posts written by me across several of my personal blogs/websites (now combined into *this* single site) since 1999.
Do the math – that’s nearly one post, every day, for the last ten years. And, I’m not even counting any posts/comments/writing I’ve done in other forums or on other people’s blogs.
3,237 posts and TEN YEARS BLOGGING…

I think this makes me not only a “recovering blogger” but a solid “vetran blogger,” too…

P.S. You guys ROCK! Almost 12,000 comments – THANKS!

If Today Was Your Last Day
Tomorrow, April 25th, marks one year since when we lost our dear friend Elaine. In the memory of her friendship and knowing that each day we have is a gift, and not a given right I wanted you to know how much you mean to me:
If I talk to you twice a day or only once a year, knowing you makes my life richer… I’m a better person because of you. Life and friendship is fleeting, hold it tightly and love both with everything you have.

Nickelback
My best friend gave me the best advice – He said each day’s a gift and not a given right – Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind – And try to take the path less traveled by – That first step you take is the longest stride
If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late – Could you say goodbye to yesterday? – Would you live each moment like your last – Leave old pictures in the past? – Donate every dime you had, if today was your last day?
What if, what if, if today was your last day?
Against the grain should be a way of life – What’s worth the price is always worth the fight – Every second counts ’cause there’s no second try – So live like you’re never living twice – Don’t take the free ride in your own life
If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late – Could you say goodbye to yesterday? – Would you live each moment like your last? – Leave old pictures in the past? – Donate every dime you had?
And would you call those friends you never see? – Reminisce old memories? – Would you forgive your enemies? – And would you find that one you’re dreaming of? – Swear up and down to God above – That you’d finally fall in love if today was your last day?
If today was your last day – Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart? – You know it’s never too late to shoot for the stars – Regardless of who you are
So do whatever it takes – ‘Cause you can’t rewind a moment in this life – Let nothing stand in your way – ‘Cause the hands of time are never on your side
If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late – Could you say goodbye to yesterday? – Would you live each moment like your last? – Leave old pictures in the past? – Donate every dime you had?
And would you call those friends you never see? – Reminisce old memories? – Would you forgive your enemies? – And would you find that one you’re dreaming of – Swear up and down to God above – That you’d finally fall in love if today was your last day?
