It's that time of the year again. I had forgotten to do this on New Year's Day.
Key Events In My Life From 2008!
After much pressure from my brother, I officially get LOST! It's one of the greatest decisions I have ever made in my life!
Rebecca4 at the Help Desk loses her job...on the bright side...I get her schedule.
My friend and colleague Tim Martin sadly takes his own life........yeah...I mean he gets married.
The 2007-2008 Writers Guild Of America Strike officially ends! Praise God!!
We find out where IS is going to be moving. There was a plan to move in late August to the old Home Court America building on I-10 and Callahan, but that fell through. We're still currently at University Hospital.
The Apple iPhone SDK is released making it possible for thousands of developers to write even more incredible applications for the iPhone. The greatest phone ever made gets a little better.
"Meet Kevin Johnson" airs on ABC on March 20th. I won't give out any spoilers in case anyone reading this decides to start watching LOST, but wow! Wow!!
I see "Iron Man". It turns out to be really good.
I learn to do the opening trick with my Zippo lighter. I can finally die happy.
I plan a trip to New York for summer of '09, but then decide not to go.
I purchase the new 3G iPhone. Tears of joy...well...you get the idea.
"The Dark Knight" premiers. MOVIE OF THE FUCKIN' YEAR!!
We dine at the highly praised Achiote restaurant at the Grand Hyatt San Antonio. LOL I had an awesome time there! One of the best experiences of my life...LOL!
Carol and I hook up.
My nephew Adam turns 2. He gets a toy dinosaur for his birthday which he treasures and loves.
I find true love in the form of the Nintendo Wii.
Hurricane Ike slams into the Texas coastline leaving half the state in ruins. Huge cities are destroyed and life as we know it ceases to exist. The sun turns black and the moon turns to blood and well...you get it. Seriously, Houston got hit pretty hard, but it was nowhere near what everyone was thinking it would be. That didn't stop the panicking public from emptying supermarket shelves and boarding themselves up in their homes. Good one, folks.
Allen turns 5....no....4....right? Yeah. 4
I experience the Pu Pu Platter from Mencius. Words cannot describe, my friends. Words cannot describe.
My friend and colleague Robert Clark Burkey sadly takes his own life........yeah...I mean he gets married. The wedding was held in Austin, and we decided to make a weekend of it. We had a kick ass time!
Barack Obama becomes the 44th president of the United States Of America. Of course people make way too big a deal out of it. It's just another democrat being elected into office to steal from the rich and give to the poor, folks. That's it. Nothing more...
All in all, this was a pretty good year. I didn't learn too much. I didn't grow. I didn't evolve. I stayed right where I wanted to be. I'm in a good place right now, and I intend on staying there. Goodnight and good luck, folks. Lates!
