Since I’ve been in Denver I haven’t asked for much. I’ve actually not needed much. I structured my life around a minimalist existence and have been very happy with it, which contrasts my opulent lifestyle back in Nashville. My minimalist existence not only dealt with material objects but with my way of life. I took the bus and train everywhere. I didn’t drive unless absolutely necessary. In a little over 2 years I’ve put less than 3000 miles on my car. I tried to do things that cost as little as possible (day hike, fish, cruise the library, etc.). And I’ve enjoyed every bit of this lifestyle.

I truly enjoy seeing people around me do well; I try to help them out if I can and have never really wanted anything for myself. That is, until recently. In January (yes, January) something appeared that I really wanted and I pursued it with unrelenting fervor. I think once I have it, I can make it better. Then I can make everyone associated with it better. I always tell myself that if I get it, it won’t change my existence. My lifestyle. Me.

Well, I got it.

I can’t say anymore until Thursday but stayed tuned…
