Ode to 2005

The year 2005...NOT a bore
But, all the traveling could have left my butt quite sore

"Go Hawks" is what I yelled in January
The last second catch was just plain scary

In February, my dad turned another year older
And the weather kept turning colder

In March I headed to Marco Island with my bags all packed
Where I laid on the beach and burned my back

In late April there was a trip to Iowa City
Where Aaron and I celebrated our 24th with a little ditty

I made the trip there again in Mid-May
To watch Josh get his law school diploma the I-O-way

I moved on a very hot day in June
With the help of my family, I now have a much bigger room

In July, to St Louis I was headed, until I got a flat
But I got there, saw my family and the Cardinals swing the bat

August and September were full of work, work, work
Unlike camp, this was not work I could shirk

In October, to my grandparents and Columbus, I did drive
Somehow, the Taurus is still alive

To Iowa City and Madison did I go in November
The Hawks beat MN and eating Russian dumplings, I will always remember

December was busy, but also full of rest
I spent the holidays with family and mine's the very best.
