Manditory new year survey:
1. What did you do in 2005 that you'd never done before?
Danced
2. Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I didn't keep any of my resolutions. If I recall correctly, this was the year I said I was going to sell all my belongings and start living off the land...
3. Did anyone you know give birth?
I think maybe some aunts did...maybe.
4. Did anyone you know die?
A lot of people I knew died.
5. What countries did you visit?
Mexico, Britain, France
6. What would you like to have in 2006 that you lacked in 2005?
Passion
7. What dates from 2005 will remain etched upon your memory?
June 9th. My birthday. Because it was so depressingly funny when I was sitting in my flat alone before anyone came home (I couldn't find the theatre playing Star Wars) and upstairs Mimi's flat was singing happy birthday to her and the sound floated through my window.
8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?
Zombie Lake. Which isn't done yet.

11. What was the best thing you bought?
50 Martial Arts movies on 12 disks.
12. Where did most of your money go?
Food and library fines.
13. Whose behavior merited celebration?
I don't know how to answer this question. I enjoy all my friends and all of their individual behaviors merit celebration, I mean, right?
14. Whose behavior made you appalled and depressed?
I don't know about appalled, but I was certainly disappointed in the old high school crew.
15. What did you get really, really, really excited about?
Gay Cowboy Movie
16. What song will always remind you of 2005?

21. How will you be spending New Years?
I don't know...maybe a little bit at my family's and then with Drew?

The Colbert Report (it's French...bitch.) and The Daily Show
