2008
All things considered, a good year. Emblematic of this, perhaps, is the fact that I don't even have time to do a proper year-in-review post because I've got to get ready to go out clubbing.
Still:
Things I Was Thankful For in 2008 In No Particular Order: Daniel [aka hofnarr]; I Had No Idea I Had Been Traveling; writing; writing with rm; magnetgirl and Ian, as well as their new abode and its swallow-you-whole-couches: The Manor; faris_nallaneen's once a week visits; my parents; hearing about sykii & askeladden's plans (God, we're really grownups!); winning a fellowship to support my dissertation; Torchwood fandom; fandom in general; some really awesome television, including: Doctor Who, Torchwood, Merlin, Supernatural, and a late contender just under the wire, True Blood; my study; my house in general; netflix watch instantly cue; the trip to "Film and History" in Chicago with magnetgirl; cutting my hair off; seeing Tom Stoppard's Rock and Roll, In the Heights' Tony Award, seeing Red Bull Theatre's Women Beware Women with faris_nallaneen, discovering David Tennant, the presidential election; Just a Taste, trip to Woodstock, my ipod, jack and gingers, battling nuf-ness, succumbing to nuf-ness, Tukun and possible trips to London; lime cilantro basil gelato; peach champagne gelato; mexican chocolate; neighborhood bars; sangria; dive bar; cafe con leche; the regency ball; seeing The Duchess; reading; going to my parents' house with D.; having my parents over for dinner here; making book art; snuggles with Dave; good birthday parties; Tam coming home; awesomely kinky sex; leaving Lehman; trip to India with faris_nallaneen; seeing all my relatives esp. Dida, and Mamima; living through that car accident; Tukai coming to the States; teaching kidlit @ Hunter; used bookstores; good food; swimming pools; my lj f-list [you guys rock so hard!]; everyone who comments on my and our stories; and at the end, Daniel again, because he deserves mentioning twice.
New Year's Resolutions: I will make a schedule and stick to it. I will finish (start?) my dissertation. Rach and I will get our novel done. I will go to the gym. I will cook more. I will make music. This year is my learn-to-vid year. I will write more.
Roll on, 2009. See y'all next year & have a fantastic, brilliant night.
