Decade in Review
Another decade has come and gone, and this one has been particularly eventful. Like, a lot eventful.
Some highlights:

February 2000: I got engaged.
Summer 2000: I applied for a Canadian visa and planned a wedding. Very stressful.

March 31, 2001: I got married.
April 2001: I moved to Canada.
Summer 2001: I made my first trip to the West Coast.
Sept 11, 2001: I had a job interview, my first in years and years. Some other stuff happened, too.
Sept 19, 2001: I get my first non-bus driving job in years and years, at a call centre.
September 2002: I got promoted.
January 2003: I made a lateral move at my job.

December 2004: Jaws, going against her name, had most of her teeth removed.
January 26, 2005: We lost a beloved friend, Bit.
March 2005: Bella came to live with us.
May 2005: I picked up a little game as a diversion.
August 2005: We met a little kitten who would later take a huge chunk of our hearts.
October 15, 2005: Merry moved in with us permanently.
August 2006: My department at work was shut down, and I moved onto a "better", higher-paying position.
October 2006: Jaws had the rest of her teeth removed.
April 12, 2007: I became a Canadian citizen.
April 2008: We bought a new car, and retired an old one with honors.
Fall 2008: I quit my old, hated job, and went back to school.
It's been packed!
Hopefully the next 10 are just as interesting. :)
