525,600 minutes...525,600 moments so dear. 525,600 minutes, how do you measure, measure a year. In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights, in cups of coffee, in pinches, in miles and strides...525,600 minutes, how do you measure a year?

How about love....measure in love.

525,600 minutes...525,600 journeys to plan. 525,600 minutes...how do you measure the life of a woman or a man? In truth that she learned, or times that he cried, in bridges he burned, or the way that she died...

It's time now, to sing out, no the story never ends. Let's celebrate, remember a year in the life of friends.

I just spent 15 of those 525,600 minutes being terrorized by a huge black fly. Hairspray in right hand, twisted magazine in the other, i just took down a buzzing monster!! Rah!

But seriously, tomorrow i'm going to Montreal. Four weeks out of 525,600 minutes will be spent on something i pushed for against all the odds. Through all the trouble and hassle to set this up, i needed to do it not because it was important by itself - but because this was one journey i know i have to make alone. Tomorrow, i will embark, just me in my little dinky car hitting the open highway....eating fast food french fries, singing along to my music on the top of my lungs, and my moonroof put back, the wind blowing through my hair. Kind of cheesy, I know. (This moment was brought to you by Bon Jovi) :)
