This was a response written to a friend who asked what's up, I just thought I would share it with everyone. Nothing big...

Yeah I am doing fine! It was a very busy Xmas. December is normally busy for me as most of my clients are ski resorts in Austria and Switzerland and everyone is frantically trying to finish up their ad campaigns for the new winter season, and all of this has to be done before the holiday vacation. Then I was off to England for a week to visit some friends and family and speak and listen to english for a change which is great however it always seems like a rush during Xmas with food, presents, visits etc. Then back to Austria for the new year where I drunk responsibly this year (I only got a 95% smashed instead of completely +20%) and actually was able to cue my hangover in the morning with only a few more drinks :-) I finished a big project in the first week of January so all I need to do is move in with my wife (yes I am finally making the commitment, a bit backwards I know) however I have to move out of my old apartment to the new one by the end of the month which means painting (where is Gabe when you need him?). So in Feburary I will really have a stress free life, no bills (the wife's company pays for them), no major changes, no decisions, just a shit load of beer money and tickets to Barcelona for a friend's birthday party.

I haven't been to Barcelona since 2003. Seems like just yesterday! Where does the time go? Here are a couple pics of lunch with my friends Bianca & Chris (and his crew). El Quim de la Boqueria is one of my favorite places in the whole world to eat. Grilled fish fresh in the market. After a few glasses of Cava it is off to the beach.
