25 Questions Round Two

So, I was looking up an old blog for a friend whose child swallowed a magnet.  That took me back to 2006 to read how long it took for Andy to pass that penny. 9 days. Crazy the things you forget.  Anyway, I found this 25 questions that I posted in 2006 and since I haven't blogged in close to forever, I thought this may be better than nothing. It looks like it was a new year thing or something. Whatever.  Here goes 25 questions revisited in 2013!

25. Quote a song lyric that sums up your year.
Rising up back on my feet. Did my time, took my chances. Went the distance now I'm back on my feet. Just a man and his will to survive. So many times it happens too fast, you trade your passion for glory. Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past. You must fight just to keep them alive.
