How do you measure a year in the life...

Dec 31, 2009 10:41

So, the year in retrospect.  Where have I been this year?  Everywhere and nowhere, which needs some explanation.

How I've gone nowhere:  This is the first year in which I've had ONE STABLE JOB for an entire year.  I've lived in ONE HOUSE for the entire year. I've had functional stability.  I got married in 2008, but in 2009, my relationship status has been absolutely stable - very happily married to the most wonderful woman in the world.  (Hell, she can put up with me full-time, so she's gotta be awesome.)  I've been part of the same church and Druid groups for over a year now.

How I've gone everywhere:  Oh gods, liek whoa.  Conventions.  New friends.  More conventions.  New fandom.  New fanfiction adventures.  New depths to my marriage.  More conventions.  More costumes.  New hobbies.  And did I mention conventions?

So, this has been a year of surprising stability and delightful adventures.

I'm hoping that the next year will actually bring more of the same.  And I mean precisely that.  I'm immensely happy.  I'm delightfully content.  I have enough fun and exciting things happening to keep me going.  I have adventures planned and I expect the unexpected.  What more could a person want?

Happy New Year, my dear friends.  To all of you who are a major part of the joy in my life, thank you for that.  May your year ahead be as wonderful as you hope, and may your memories of the past serve you well.

fandom, real life
