A meme ganked from
superkatchan . Take the first line from the first post of every month of the year. Repost it here as your year in review.

April 2007: 4/1 - "While I would LOVE to play an April Fool's joke on all of you today, I really can't think of anything original enough and I lack the energy, so- you guys will just have to get pranked by someone else."

December 2007: 12/4 - "Am back safely from Wales."
In a sad, sad way, this really does seem to sum up my year... A lot of this year has been very down for me. Sprinkled between all this sucakge has been a few very happy things. I lost two friends this year, my mom lost her half-sister, I < sarcasm > "celebrated" one year of living with my folks < /sarcasm > , and I have been battling my eye problem for MONTHS now. But some good things happened too: I went to Wales and got to see two very good friends, I finally got OUT of the damn florist and have a job that challenges me and makes me feel productive (and where I do not have to drive my own car around ALL DAY LONG because the company vehicle keeps breaking down on me!), and I bought two things I have wanted/desired for a long time- my laptop and my camera.
Sadly, the year is still far from over for me, it seems.... I need to start cranking out Christmas cards and I need to get this- *ahem*... ~my~ room in some resemblance of order. So ta-ta for now!
